Wednesdays creative moments...

I had a lovely day yesterday... I managed to get about 15 skeins dyed into 5 new colourways for my upcoming yarn range.

Here's some steaming...


Why do I steam to set the dye? Well, for me it's an easier way... It means I can walk away if I need too and do other things. This is only a small run solution though...

Here's one of the colours rinsing...


Mmmm, I think I see a rainbow!

I'm hoping to get some spinning done today... What are you up to?

Bye for now,

Oooh the colours are looking fabby as usual Sara.

I've finished planning my Christmas crafting list, sort of. Just hope I can get my knitting and crochet gifts completed in time.

Thank you Ruby... just waiting for them to dry so I can photograph them.

I've made one thing for Christmas so far... everyone else is a bit more tricky. I might dye some yarn for one other present... we'll see.

Good luck with your knitting and crochet, I hope you get it all finished in time.
