New Fiber In the Shop and the possibilities.

I am thrilled to announce a new addition to my shop: Himalayan Fiber!

Before diving into the details, I want to share my journey with this fascinating material. I've seen numerous posts on Facebook where fellow fiber enthusiasts show their yarn spun with Himalayan Fiber. Their beautiful yarns and projects piqued my curiosity, and I've been eager to experiment with this versatile fiber.

Imagine my excitement when one of my suppliers offered Himalayan Fiber. I had been contemplating various projects and couldn't wait to get my hands on it. As soon as the shipment arrived, I eagerly opened the box and took a small portion to create a Nuno felted scarf. The results were beyond my expectations, and I'm excited to explore more ways to use this wonderful fiber.

To highlight the Himalayan Fiber as the centerpiece of my creation, I used it for both the first and last layers. This technique allowed the Merino wool and silk yarn to remain nestled between the layers of Himalayan Nettle, creating a beautiful and cohesive design.

The fiber's long staple length allowed me to create beautiful fringes for the scarf. The felted piece drapes nicely and appears to soften with use, adding to its charm. I can't wait to try spinning some as well!
