We spent most of today at
The Possible exhibit at the Berkeley Art Museum. The museum has turned several galleries into working studios for sculptors, printmakers, dyers, weavers, musicians, performance artists. A curator told me today that Clark Kerr's original intention for the space was as an art center. The Possible has realized this intention. While we were there today I wove a little on a handmade loom, we drew on a tshirt, molded clay, danced on the rag rug, and played music. If you can, you should see it. I wish it would carry on until the museum closes later this year in anticipation of its move to a new space in 2016.
In MMM2014 news: Inspired by the visit to the museum I came home and worked on my Wiksten variation. I decided against the shirring after all and made a channel and a drawstring. At the show there was a ton of stuff that had been indigo dyed and it got me thinking about indigo dyeing this dress instead of acid dyeing. We shall see!
I wore my original Taproot Tunic today and my one of my unexpectedly favorite knit items the
Lunatic Fringe scarf. It is one of the rare knits where not only did I knit it in the called-for yarn, but I had that yarn in my stash in the right amount. Sorry for the blurry, bus selfie:
