Mobius Shawl


Finished the Mobius shawl. I had purchased 8 oz of some white/yellow wool and mohair fiber but after spinning it wasn't thrilled with the color-way too washed out for my taste. I washed the wool and put it in an old crockpot with some green Rit dye and let it simmer on low for 3 hours. It resulted in this --shaded colors of green; my favorite color! I am going to wear it Friday night to the football game!

    Wow, the color variations are gorgeous, even on a computer screen!

    It would be fun to make one in each color family...
