from natural white combed top corridale wool to socks
another experiment, im still learning how to dye with predictable results. the yarn is 3 ply with two singles spun with z twist and the third with s twist, and then s plyed. it's a technique i tried for the first time that apparently is done for socks to make them more stretchy. can confirm they are very comfy and the yarn looks uneven by itself but even when knitted up

If you guys don't follow my crochet blog you won't know this but I'm really big into hand spinning and hand dying now. I have some nice new "super fine" 3 ply that I want to dye and make this bag.
How should I dye this?
Solid vivid scarlet, or pink-white-green "strawberry stripes"?

Cloak 2.0 is here. My favorite thing about this house is the atrocious lighting lol
happy new year everybody
my parents got me a pound of bare cheviot top for Christmas & two new dyes so I finally have some more stuff to dye. I kind of think I need more one-color yarn so I dyed up a few ounces this past week and got this nice green color
other news:
I've been doing more drawing but I feel like i forgot how to draw faces (I'm still drawing faces tho). i also have a couple knitting projects I'm working on AND the cross stitch kit I got for Christmas last year.
I have a goal of writing at least one thing per month this year. (And finishing my cross stitch cuz I have a new one to start lol)
Little dyeing experiment from three years back - Canadian goldenrod on a wool and silk blended yarn. Mordanted with alium, this was 300g of goldenrod for 100g of yarn, you definitely don't need that much but look what a lovely colour it came out to be.
Dyeing on the stovetop for the first time and all the online info assumes acid dyes or some form of powder dye whereas I'm using food colouring.
I decided that I should use 15ml of dye for the 15g but idk if that is the proper method for a 100% saturation
In dot dyeing you do a percentage of the weight of fibre so I just assume that applies here also
Marigold yarn in the works!
