The 1764 Shepherdess

A new item/idea has been added to the web shop, spinning kits.

The first one I have made available is a Spin to Embroider kit.  It’s been brewing for awhile in my mind and I finally pulled all the pieces together.

The Sock Laundry Bag is a spin to embroider kit for slow making. Great to make for yourself or as a gift.  If intending to give as a gift, why not include a pair of handknit socks, as the washing instructions are already on the bag.

Included in the kit:

• Approximately 96 grams total (a mix of 12 tonal colors) of Scandinavian wool, dyed at the 1764 Studio, to spin for embroidery thread.
• A french seam sewn cotton laundry bag (approx. 12″ x 14″) envelope style, crafted at the 1764 Studio, with muslin on the front to embroider, a sheep print backing fabric and a loop for hanging.
• The Handknit Handwash Embroidery pattern pdf and Slow Making instructions emailed through the system after purchase to download.

You can find the new kits here!

Happy making!
