I just read a great interview with Polly Barton on a blog called Handful of Salt. Polly makes the most wonderful ikat creations. I can stand in front of her work forever (mostly thinking, HOW does she DO that?). But once I get past the "Holy crap! It is NOT possible to do that with fiber!" moment, her work is just stunning. Her website is wonderful. Check out her gallery.
She is teaching at Penland School of Crafts this summer. Oh how I wish I could go!
Here is some of the yarn from my last big dye run in January. Much of it isn't being used in the current piece, but will be in the future.
