Friday seems like a good day to share some recent dyeing pictures. Several of these yarns are headed for the Adventurous April KAL (if you are looking for the details for this week's yarn giveaway, which ends tonight, Friday, at midnight, they are HERE) and they've been a lot of fun to dye.
This first one is Coppelia, on Tree Sock, the replacement for my old favorite Sea Sock, which is not longer available from the mill. Tree Sock has that same wonderful sheen.
BFL Constant. I love this yarn. Crossword Clue is a really nice blue/blue purple colorway, with a little bit of a pale lavender surprise in the undertone.
I've been all about deep, rich reds lately. This is House of Voodoo on the left and Mulberry on the right. I like Mulberry so much that I'm contemplating a sweater later on this year on Aran weight Cloud Soft. It's a really pretty, rich, layered red.
Cyndi. Because the girls just want to have fun. If you know me, you know I love a complex, variegated sock yarn. Cyndi is a riot. Small boy-children will love their socks so much if you knit them from this colorway that they won't lose them. But I've got a nice thick pair of socks in mind for myself to wear with hiking boots this spring.
Last up today is Goldilocks, on the same Tree Sock base we started out with. This color is right where grunge meets elegance. It's layers of color that shine through in the most pleasing way. Is it brown? Is it green? Is it yellow? Everyone I've asked seems to have a different take on it. But they all, even people who say they aren't yellow people, seems to like it. Me too. I'm contemplating an Icterine for spring.
That's my dyeing from the last month or so. I hope you enjoy it and it helps you get on with Friday and into the weekend!
I’m drooling over the lovely colors!
