The Evolution of Color Horoscope Kits
Posted by Jessica Ybarra on
Bonnie Tarses is the genius behind our new Color Horoscope Kits and they’re brilliant!
When these pre-wound yarns are combined with Bonnie’s warp color sequence based on your birth of date, anniversary or special occasion you’ll creates a fabric that is soft and luscious and uniquely your own!
We’re in the process of assembling 100 of these unique kits for Convergence 2010 in Albuquerque, NM July 22-25, 2010! Come see us there!
What is a Color Horoscope Kit: A personal horoscope is translated into color using a unique method of spectrum manipulation conceived and developed by Bonnie Tarses. Each of the 12 hues in the carefully selected palette represents an astrological sign, house or planet. Just the right amount of each color has been measured out by Cotton Clouds for economy and ease. Keep in mind, these 12 colors combine to create over 5 billion color possibilities, representing a map of the sky at a particular moment in time.
Your fabric will be as unique as you are!
Here are a few images of the process of assembling these Bambu 7 & Bambu 12 yarn kits!
Here’s Jodi winding the yarns on our new industrial winder.
Each kit has 12 gorgeous rainbow colors of either our Bambu 7 or Bambu 12 yarns for warp and enough yarn to weave a generous size shawl, baby blanket or scarf. There are bright jewel tones for the scarves and shawls and beautiful pastels for the baby blankets.
Plus what makes this Color Horoscope Weaving kit so unique are all the great instructions within. Each kit comes with an instruction packet that contains beautiful graphic postcard designs of the kits from Cotton Clouds and Bonnie Tarses, a Color Horoscope Sample Disk to help you identify each color in your kit, warping, weaving, finishing instructions along with excellent information about the signs, planets and zodiac of your horoscope kit. We’ve made ordering your personalized color horoscope warp color sequence chart from Bonnie Tarses with a Questionnaire and Order Form that you can mail directly to Bonnie.
We just made it so easy for you to get this project on the loom, weave your own personalized colors and wrap yourself in the luxury of Cotton Clouds’ 100% soft and sensuous Bambu yarns!
Whether you’re new to weaving or it’s been a long time passion, you’re going to love not only working with these Bambu yarns but the uniqueness of creating a very personal color horoscope fabric.
