I created this wall hanging during June after the killing of George Floyd on May 25th, 2020. Due to Covid19 restrictions, I did not feel able to attend the Black Lives Matter protests, so I decided to do a weaving to express my support of this movement and to express of my sadness and thoughts about the killing. I believe that there are many ways that a person can change their circumstances, for example by getting more education or training. However, one of the things that is nearly impossible to change is a person’s skin color. Wherever you go, it is always with you and obvious to all with whom you are interacting. And yet on the inside, both physically and psychologically, we are the same. We have the same range of desires, goals, feelings, and abilities. The warp threads symbolize the different colors of peoples’ skin with a predominance of dark colors. Woven through them is mesh tubing filled with red yarn‐symbolizing the blood running through our arteries. The wall hanging is meant to show how we are all the same inside even though our skin color is different. $650 45 Allyson Swaney Happy 50th: Wall Hanging 2020 9 x 3 x 17.

  • A Research on Yarn and Fabric Characteristics of Acrylic/Wool/Angora Blends
    (REFEREED RESEARCH) A RESEARCH ON YARN AND FABRIC CHARACTERISTICS OF ACRYLIC/WOOL/ANGORA BLENDS AKRİLİK/YÜN/ANGORA LİFİ KARIŞIMLARINDAN ÜRETİLEN İPLİK VE KUMAŞLARIN ÖZELLİKLERİ ÜZERİNE BİR ARAŞTIRMA Gamze SÜPÜREN MENGÜÇ * Ege University, Emel Akın Vocational Training School, 35100, Bornova-İzmir, Turkey Received: 05.01.2016 Accepted : 09.03.2016 ABSTRACT Acrylic fibers are one of the most commonly used synthetic fibers and due to its low thermal conductivity, good shape retention and durability properties, they have a large application area in knitted garment industry. Acrylic fibers are also used in blends to benefit from more prominent features of other fibers. Wool with having good wrinkle resistance, moisture absorption and warmth is a good blend material for acrylic. In order to get superior tactile properties, luxury animal fibers can also be used in acrylic blends, despite there are spinning difficulties and production limitations for these fibers. In this study, acrylic fiber and its blends with wool and Angora rabbit fiber were investigated for their yarn and fabric properties. According to the experimental results and the statistical analyses, it was concluded that, blending acrylic fiber with wool and Angora rabbit fiber, increases the CVm, thin/thick places and neps of the yarn. Yarns containing 100% acrylic and 70% acrylic/10% wool/20% angora have the highest tensile strength. In case of yarn friction coefficients, 70% acrylic /20% wool /10% angora containing yarn has the highest coefficient of yarn to pin and yarn to yarn friction values. However, 70% acrylic/30% angora and 100% acrylic yarns have lower values, supplying smoother yarn surface.

  • Sea Urchin Design by Susanna IC
    Sea Urchin Design by Susanna IC The Sea Urchin hat derives its name from the interesting starburst design formed at the top which is so reminiscent of the sea creature’s shell. This hat was designed specifically for Noro yarns; however, the overall zigzag pattern created by a simple stitch will make most of any self-striping yarn of similar weight. This easy to memorize and quick to knit one row chevron lace in combination with a dramatically colored yarn makes the Sea Urchin a perfect last minute project for giving or keeping. The lace pattern is stretchy and will accommodate a large range of adult sizes; however, it can also be easily scaled down for a child by using a lighter weight yarn with appropriate needles. Finished Size: 19” to 23” Yarn: Noro Kureyon, Silk Garden or Cashmere Island; the original was knitted with a little more than one skein of Silk Garden #252, approximately 20 yards were from a second skein (45% silk, 45% kid mohair, 10% lamb’s wool; 110 yards / 50 grams) Gauge: 10 sts / 12 rows = 1½” in 3x4 rib pattern knit circularly using smaller needles (not stretched) Needles: Size 5 / 3.75 mm and size 7 / 4.50 mm circular needles or sets of double pointed needles Notions: Stitch marker Ribbing With smaller needles cast on 105 stitches; place marker and join for knitting in the round, being careful not to twist stitches.

  • FABRICS/ DYING Dictionary
    FABRICS/ DYING dictionary ACRYLIC BABYCORD Acrylic fabric is a manufactured fiber with a soft wool-like feel and Babycord is a ribcord fabric with a very small and thin rib line. The an uneven finish. It is used widely in knits as the fabric has the same fabric is often lighter and softer than normal or corduroy fabric. It is cozy look as wool. Acrylic fabric is favored for a variety of reasons very soft and comfortable, and is often made in a stretch quality. it is warm, quite soft, holds color well, is both stain and wrinkle resistant and it doesn’t itch. These qualities make acrylic a great BLEND substitute for wool. A blend fabric or yarn is made up of more than one fibre. In the yarn, two or more different types of fibres are used to form the yarn. ALPACA Blends are used to create a more comfortable fabric with a softer Alpaca wool comes from a South American animal that roams the feel. A good example is a cotton/wool blend; the mixture of cotton mountain slopes of Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia and Chile. The fleece and wool will prevent the fabric from being excessively warm and from an alpaca is similar to wool or mohair, but is softer, silkier, and will make the fabric softer to the skin. warmer. Because alpaca wool takes much longer to grow it is often more expensive and exclusive. However, garments made from this BOUCLE fabric are stronger and more comfortable. The term boucle is derived from the French word boucle, which literally means “to curl”.

  • Cashemere, Wool, Silk, Cotton, Linen, Viscose Acétate, Polyester, Mohair, Leather, Angora
    Care guide cashemere, wool, silk, cotton, linen, viscose acétate, polyester, mohair, leather, angora.. MAINTENANCE TIPS ba&sh recommends you follow these tips and to preserve the original look of your items. Each type of product requires special care; details are provided on the product’s care label. We recommend you follow the ins- tructions on the care label for optimal maintenance of your ba&sh items. PRÉPARATION••••••• Firstly, sorting colours is essential. Whites should be separated from co- lours, and pastels separated from darker colours, in order to avoid greying whites and dark stains bleeding onto lighter colours. Next, we recommend sorting clothes according to their washing tempera- ture, as indicated on their composition label. You can group together so-called delicate items (lace, silk, micro fibre ...) to wash then together. For some items, we recommend turning them over. This is essential for: velvets, items with prints, embroidery, transfers, fantasy knitwear, all pre- washed fabrics such as jeans. More generally, this technique is recom- mended to protect garments from fading, felting, wear or pilling for deli- cate materials. It can therefore be applied to all clothing. For delicate materials, the garment can be put in a cotton bag for washing, or a washing bag to protect it. Dry cleaning is recommended for padded garments (coats or jackets). Dry cleaning is more appropriate for this type of garment. More generally, dry cleaning is recommended for delicate materials and/or items. If you purchased coordinates, try to wash them together to limit colour differences. WASHING••••••• For the first few washes of your new clothes, we recommend you wash them separately to prevent any dye-bleeding.

    Measurement of Medullation in Wool and Mohair Using an Optical Fibre Diameter Analyser1,2 C. J. Lupton3 and F. A. Pfeiffer Texas Agricultural Experiment Station, Texas A&M University System, San Angelo 76901-9714 ABSTRACT: We conducted three experiments to revealed that OFDA estimates of M, K, and T for wool evaluate the Optical Fibre Diameter Analyser were highly correlated with PM measurements (r2 = (OFDA) for estimating medullation (med [M], kemp .9853, .9307, and .9728, respectively). Evidence was [K], and total [T] medullated fiber content) in mohair also obtained indicating that the low r2 values and wool produced by Angora goats and sheep, associated with mohair relationships were likely due respectively. Medullation can be a beneficial charac- to a combination of factors: 1) high variation among teristic in certain types of wool, but it is highly the standard PM measurements and 2) the relatively undesirable in mohair and apparel wools. Current low M, K, and T contents of the mohair samples techniques for evaluating medullation in animal fibers compared with wool. In a third experiment, greater are laborious, slow, and expensive. The OFDA had accuracy was obtained in the PM measurements by been modified by the manufacturer to measure fiber evaluating many more individual fibers per sample opacity distribution, a characteristic known to be (10,000). In this case, OFDA estimates of M, K, and T indicative of medullation in white fibers, and was for mohair were highly correlated with corresponding capable of providing such measurements in a very PM measurements (r2 = .8601, .9939, and .9696, short time. Measurements made on magnified fiber images produced with a projection microscope (PM) respectively).

  • Identification Guidelines for Shahtoosh & Pashmina
    Shahtoosh (aka Shah tush) is the trade name for woolen garments, usually shawls, made from the hair of the Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii). Also called a chiru, it is considered an endangered species, and the importation of any part or product of Pantholops is prohib- ited by U.S. law. Chiru originate in the high Himalaya Mountains of Tibet, western China, and far northern India where they are killed for their parts. Their pelts are converted into shahtoosh, and horns of the males are taken as trophies. No chirus are kept in captivity, and it reportedly takes three to five individuals to make a single shawl (Wright & Kumar 1997). Trophy Head with Horns of male Pantholops hodgsonii SHAWL COLORS Off-white and brownish beige are the natural colors of the chiru’s pelage. Shahtoosh shawls in these natural colors are the most traditional. How- ever, shahtoosh can be dyed almost any color of the spectrum. Unless the fibers are dyed opaque black, most dyed fibers allow the transmission of light so that the internal characteristics are visible under a compound microscope.

  • Contamination – Dark and Medullated Fibres and Vegetable Matter
    Lecture 4: Contamination – Dark and Medullated Fibres and Vegetable Matter Malcolm Fleet and Colin Langford Learning Objectives On completion of this lecture you should be able to: • discuss the relevance of dark and medullated fibre contamination in wool • document the main origins of dark and medullated fibres and the economic implications • justify practices implemented to prevent or control occurrences of dark and medullated fibres and the opportunities for improvement • document the causes of Vegetable Contamination (VM) • calculate how VM is measured • describe the effect of VM on wool processing • describe the economic importance of VM • list and describe the plant species causing VM problems • illustrate your understanding of the strategies which can be employed to reduce VM • plan management strategies in a sheep management system to reduce VM problems in wool. Key terms and concepts Dark and medullated fibres in wool, measurement and description, economic importance and occurrence, strategies to reduce, vegetable matter (VM), VM Types, Names of VM Types, VM Type categories, Economic importance, Wool processing and VM, Strategies to reduce VM, Sheep coats, Shearing, Grazing management. Introduction Australian wool is primarily of Merino origin (AWEX 2004a) and this together with sheep management and wool classing practices (AWEX 2004b) has assisted in generating a reputation for relative freedom from dark and medullated fibres (Satlo 1963; Cardellino 1978; Pattinson and Hanson 1993; Burbidge et al. 1991, 1993; Hansford and Swan 2005). Furthermore, this wool is primarily used for finer apparel end-uses that are more sensitive to objectionable fibres even when present in trace amounts. The type and level of objectionable fibre that can be tolerated will vary widely with the end-product application but a common threshold for dark fibre in Merino top is 100 per kg (Foulds et al.

  • The Supply of Wool in Lesotho
    Agrekon, Vol 35 No 1 March 1996) Phororo THE SUPPLY OF WOOL IN LESOTHO Hopolang Phororo Research Fellow, Institute ofSouthern African Studies, National University ofLesotho, Lesotho Lesotho is a very small producer of wool (1 thousand tonnes per year) and therefore has no influence on world prices and on world wool production. However, the earnings generated from wool exports contribute significantly to the economy, thus making wool an important product. This paper determines the factors that producers consider in their decisions to produce wool. An econometric supply model is developed which hypothesizes the variables that affect wool production. Lagged wool and mohair prices and rainfall are important variables that influence farmers' decisions to produce wool. The previous years' wool production is less important because of the biological lag associated with production. Other variables such as the marketing arrangements of wool and domestic policies might influence farmers' decisions to produce wool but were not considered in detail. DIE AANBOD VAN WOL IN LESOTHO Lesotho is 'n bale klein produsent van wol (eenduisend ton perjaar) en het dus geen invloed op wereldpyse en op wereld wolproduksie nie. Die verdienste uit woluitvoer dra egter betekenisvol tot die ekonomie by en maak wol dus 'n belangrike produk. Hierdie artikel bepaal die faktore wat produsente in ag neem in hul besluite om wol te produseer. 'n Ekonometriese aanbodmodel word ontwikkel waarin die veranderlikes wat boere se besluite om wol te produseer, gehipotetiseer word. Die vorigefare se wolproduksie is minder belangrik weens die biologiese sloering wat met produksie geassosieer word. Ander veranderlikes soos bemarkingsreelings vir wol en plaaslike beleide mag boere se besluite om wol te produseer beinvloed, maar is nie in besonderhede oorweeg nie.
