Colourful Yarn!

Finally i have dug out my camera!!!
It is still quite a good picture taker so I'm happy I had held on to it.
Below is a mass of colourful yarn I was busy dyeing a couple of weeks ago for you all to see....

All together...



Golden Rod - Pale Sage, Limes and Lemons


Madder - Two-Tone, Peachy and Bright Oranges


Eucalyptus - Peachy and Two-Tone with Madder


Logwood - Pale Greens, Burgundy, Navy and Dark Navy


It was really interesting too see how different methods produced such variations.

I have recruited a couple of knitters (my mum and my gran!) to make a couple of knitted items that I hope to add to my collections from Autumn, and I shall be trying to teach myself back into it as I haven't knitted since I was young!

I will be adding the skeins to my shops from September, they are dyed in batches of twos weighing approximately 100gms each. Dye methods are repeated but cannot always guarantee exact matching colours.

Please get in touch if you would like to request a colour from above or would like more information.
