Excellent

Beautifully done.  Love the faux ikat effect.  Makes me want to buy more painted skeins.

Thank you

I designed the scarves to use up some painted skeins and I think it went quite well. I succumbed to those pretty skeins I see them too! :) Susan

Good stripes

I like the look with the painted yarns next to solid color yarns. I think I'll do that for this years crop of holiday scarves.

Have a good day!
