Go Indigo!

In search of Roy G Biv, it is time this month for INDIGO pictures. We are linking to Julie Booth's blog and her friend Jennifer Coyne Qudeen in finding the colors of the rainbow.  Check out their blogs for more examples of indigo .  Last summer we spent some time with an indigo pot and tried out various methods of Shibori, so these pictures were not hard to find.  Hope you enjoy our indigo pictures!
Although it looks more purple here, I think that is just the lighting.  This is one of Elizabeth's beautifully crafted pieces.
This is a rayon infinity scarf that Sue made by twisting and tying with thread.
This is another scarf Sue made using flat wooden discs and buttons tied with rubber bands.
Here are some of our pieces drying on the line.
Beautiful indigo wool from the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival.
