In a clearing decorated with shimmering strands of... something, you come upon a cozy-looking sitting area. The furniture appears to be a combination of found pieces, and cushions made from the same shimmering strands as whatever is decorating the trees. Off to one side is what is very clearly a loom, with a length of fabric in progress.

Next to one of the cushions on the ground is a basket of yarn, and a drop spindle with yarn in the process of being made wrapped around it. There are lanterns and fairy lights strung up as well, and the entire area feels welcoming and comfortable. You hear a faint skittering sound coming from the forest near the clearing, and a few moments later, a quiet voice speaks up, sounding startled.

"O-Oh, goodness! I w-wasn't expecting company so soon!" Out of the forest skitters Koprina, the shy drider who arrived to the area earlier in the year. "I-I'm so sorry to keep you waiting. I-I've been trying to find new ways to dye the silk fabric I make clothes from. I-I was gathering berries to make more dyes..." She stammers, looking a bit uncomfortable. "I-I made some t-test pieces with the dyes I made... I heard p-people here like pets, and I found out there's a shop that will t-trade berries for the p-pets I made, and a few other pets that showed up, if you're interested!"

Hi, Koprina. Have you ever tried stinging nettle dye?

Koprina · Posted 04-27-2018, 12:39 AM

"O-Oh, I hadn't thought of that... W-What colors does it make?" Koprina asks, getting a notepad out of the basket of yarn.

Tam I am · Posted 04-27-2018, 12:40 AM

It makes a beautiful green. Soft and warm.

Den · Posted 04-27-2018, 12:55 AM

Kinda like your undershirt, Tam?

Tam I am · Posted 04-27-2018, 12:58 AM

Way prettier.

Koprina · Posted 04-27-2018, 01:00 AM

"Oh, that is lovely."

Tam I am · Posted 04-27-2018, 01:05 AM

It's almost like your snake doll.

Den · Posted 04-27-2018, 01:24 AM

*looks in her yarn stash* I have a darker green than that... But it's in the same family! :D

Tam I am · Posted 04-27-2018, 01:31 AM

What kind is it?

Den · Posted 04-27-2018, 01:35 AM

Wool. Plymouth Galloway brand. It's left over from the Doctor Who scarf I knitted a few years back.

Tam I am · Posted 04-27-2018, 01:36 AM

Awwww. Sounds really pretty.

Koprina · Posted 04-27-2018, 01:38 AM

"I-I've never worked with wool before... I'll have to find some..."

Tam I am · Posted 04-27-2018, 01:40 AM

Oh! Here! I combed Sardis. She's really soft.

Koprina · Posted 04-27-2018, 02:08 AM

"O-Oh, goodness! Thank you!"

Hi, Koprina. Have you ever tried stinging nettle dye? I'm not very active right now, because of stuff. If you don't see me around and you really need to get hold of me, you can yell at me over at one of these places? My blog. KofK CS Gaia Sale thread woman
