LOTHLORIEN Luxury Art Batt for Spinners and Felters

Regular price $18.00

Quantity Available: 17

Sometimes inspiration for a new art batt or yarn strikes, and everything else just has to stop. That's what happened when the idea for these art batts struck me. I was thinking about the description of Lothlorien from The Fellowship of the Ring. It was a place at once ancient and new, beautiful and mournful, wild and civilized. That is what I tried to convey in these art batts.

They have several shades of green merino, green kid mohair locks for texture, silky bronze bamboo, and nutmeg brown merino, a bit of regal purple, soft gold muga silk, and the most incredibly soft undyed silver baby alpaca. I can't decide which is softer--the muga silk or the alpaca. I added a generous amount of gold angelina so the whole shimmers just like Lothlorien should.

The last photos show some yarn I spun from these art batts and a hat I made from the yarn.

I am so happy with the art batts from purple lamb. They are all sooo pretty. The shipping was fast and the amount of wool is very large!

I will definitely be a repeat customer. The customer service was really spectacular and my shipment even came with a personal, handwritten note. This was all in addition to the beautiful art batts she made. Definitely a five-star experience.
