Color Sated

Hit the dyepot in a little different way this time.  I tried to get a two color result in one skein so put 1/2 in a mason jar and put it in the sun to heat!

 My first batch didn't work right-it came out more red than orange and I had to try again!  I am calling this skein a popsicle rocket.  Remember those popsicles you ate as a kid?  Bill we be getting these socks.
                              
 The second batch turned out the right color of orange and blue.    
                          
  I even dyed another bit of roving to match the last skein of yarn so there is enough to make mittens and hat.

The Gator yarn is wound up in a ball and ready to be knit into a pair of socks for a special Gator fan.

Bill brought these in today-radishes from the garden-just so crisp and tart!  Delicious.

The other fruit are persimmons.  I have never eaten one but will try one now.  The color is just right for this color sated day.
