dyed yarn

May 04, 2008 10:16

YAY. I finally got around to dyeing one of my handspun yarns. It came out much nicer than I thought it would. I dyed it with turmeric and I thought it was going to come out bright yellow. It came out a goldish rusty color instead.




today i'm going to try to dye with alkanet (maybe purplish gray) and madder root (maybe redish)
I have to spin a lot more yarn.

Also: here's a picture from the black purls meeting yesterday- Hope and Kelly in their cute outfits. We are now meeting at a new coffee shop that makes it own coffee and they have all those huge machines in the back ,which you can see behind Hope & Kelly.
