Tien, I've been admiring your beautiful lengths of fabric, ever since you started posting about this project (dyeing knitted blanks creates such lovely colour changes.)

I'm looking forward to seeing Autumn Splendor's progress...

I am a very new weaver but I have been into spinning and dyeing for a while. I am in awe of all the wonderful skill and art that you put into this garment. You have achieved a wonder for sure.
