I spent this weekend with
Frax and J, dyeing lots and lots of yarn, knitting (and spinning for me), and watching a hefty chunk of
Battlestar Galactica.
This is what I came home with:
That's overdyed yak yarn (previously salmon pink, cream and grey) at the front, a whole load of previously-undyed Cumbrian wool yarn at the middle and the back (it's semi-solid rather than solid, but more consistent in colour in real life than it looks in the photo), and some handspun undyed grey wool in the middle-back (this is going to be Wisteria). It feels as if I suddenly have lots of new yarn, and I've even started knitting the violet wool:
There's a lot more of it now than when I took the photo, but this is
Ella from Knitty, and it's working out rather nicely :-)
