YARN!

After what feels like forever and a day ... I finally did some yarn and roving dyeing. :) I experimented with a new technique I came up with on the yarn and most of it turned out great. Not so sure about the bright green one ... makes me think of Kermit the Frog. All of the yarn was dyed using the same four colors that I mixed up myself. The different shades in the yarn are due to different concentrations, mixing and the different fibers.


100% superwash merino roving


75% wool/25% nylon


some sort of wool ... can't remember right now


peruvian highland wool


75% merino/25% nylon (this was actually an overdye ... i love it when mistakes turn into gorgeous yarn)

70% merino/30% silk


wool ... not sure what kind
