Birds of a Feather



colors . . . remind me of a crest/fringe/plume of shiny feathers . . . blues, purples, white, black and brown.

These one-of-a kind little bowls hope to make you happy by catching your goodies inside for safe keeping.

And they also nest nicely together ~ as birds of a feather flock together.

It was hand spun, knit, fulled then finished with care by me, Wendy. Made from wonderful hand painted Rambouillet wool yarn in a gorgeous colorway named Pigeon by fellow Fiberista, Cloudlover.
