A taste of autumn in Dublin

I was back in the dirty old town for five days. I met my friends, went to my favorite places, visited the Knitting and Stitching Show , got dripping wet, then a sore throat and a cold, and ate some delicious carrot cake. I loved being there again.

The yarn room

I love the weaving room at school . Specially the wall with the wardrobes full of yarn cones. The rest is nice too. Have a look:

Attention: birds overhead

Another etching from my course at Graphic Studio Dublin . In this post you can see a preliminary sketch . And these are some pictures of much more populated wires I photographed in Galway some time ago. I like the pictures but I decided to kill some birds...

Random screenprinting #3

This is another example of my experiments with screenprinting during Liz Nilsson 's workshop. In this case I put a piece of plastic lace under the fabric and then printed with green dye using an open screen.

Before the spring comes

This is my first woven scarf!! ... I mean, hmm hmm...before it was woven, of course. A bit of order in the yarn chaos, and eventually... it's wrapped around my neck. I'm learning to weave in a rush to complete a few scarves before the warm weather arrives...

I discovered Replicata during my trip to Freiburg last month. Among other products they offer replicas of tiles from the Jugendstil period. Have a look at these, aren't they gorgeous? (pictures from Replicata)

Sunday walk

On Sunday afternoon we walked around the city. We chose a new neighbourhood to discover, Sarrià. There were surprises along the way, including nice patterns and terrible monsters . We ended up at the museum of decorative arts Palau Reial de Pedralbes...
