I sewed a skirt out of hand-spun fabric | Dyeing, spinning, weaving and sewing British wool

I designed a blend of British breeds wool tops for spinning, and wanted to see how the naturally heathered grey wool would take dye. I ended up spinning my dyed sample batch into yarn, then weaving that into cloth and sewing it into an (almost) zero-waste tweedy skirt.
