Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening - Robert Frost

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening - Robert Frost

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there's some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Silk Brick - Wonderland Fibers

Silk Brick - Wonderland Fibers
Originally uploaded by polyartgirl

Some of the most luxurious and beautiful silk I've ever laid my hands on.


This is for sale under Polyartgirl Inspirations at Spindies, the online Art Fiber Festival.

This is some of the softest, most luxurious silk I've ever had the pleasure of touching. It's not sticky like silk can sometimes be. It's soft and spins like a dream.

This brick has much of the natural sparkling white still shining through. The dyed parts are professional acid dyes in warm green and orange.

Silk brick comes in a roving that is about a hand wide. It's long fibers are aligned and may be spun into a very even yarn if that's what you desire.

100% top quality silk, hand wash any yarn or garment made from this fiber to keep it sparkling for many years to come.
