Autumn Color Preparation

 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!
