Here's something I haven't done in a long time-dye some yarn!
Dee of PointyLittleSticks blog is doing a KAL
which will begin on September 1,
highlighting Autumn colors.
I have plenty of wool but needed a pop of color for the leaves affect
I pictured in my head!
So I dyed two skeins since the first one turned out so well!
It was a great day to dry them outside!
The bottom skein is worsted weight yarn in a downy wool
and the top skein is fingering weight superwash Merino.
Here is side one of the worsted skein
and side two.
This is the sock yarn-side one
and side two.
I left a bit more undyed spots for this one
to give the impression of a speckled yarn.
We will see how they turn out on Friday!
Gorgeous! What did you use to dye them?
ReplyDeletePretty colors! We are all excited to see autumn coming closer!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colors! Keeping some bare areas is a good idea, and I plan to do that on the next batch I dye.
ReplyDeleteThey turned out so well. Gorgeous colors. Excited to see your start tomorrow!!
ReplyDeleteWow! They turned out beautifully! Can't wait to see them knit up.
ReplyDeleteFun colors. I see Maple trees in there
ReplyDeletePerfect!!! It may not feel like fall around here for ages but I am getting a bad case of the Halloween bug. It must be that Witches Brew candle I am burning.
