To Dye or Not to Dye -
There Is No Question!

70% Merino/ 30% Silk, Kool-Aid:













Colors were Grape, Ice Berry Blue, Lemon-Lime, and Black Cherry.













I absolutely LOVE yarn dyeing. Love it.

OH. And one of the biggest perks of working in a yarn store? Steven got a free sample shipment of beautiful silk yarn from India the other day. There are about 12-15 hanks of beautiful white silk yarn of different weights and textures.

He sent them all home with me to pick a couple out and dye one of them for the store, and one of them for me.

100% silk! I can't WAIT!

He also asked if I could teach a class this fall on yarn dyeing. You bet! I think it will be fun.

To all of you Mothers out there - have a wonderful Mother's Day. Spoil yourself a little!
