So much for test dyeing ahead of time. Things don’t always go right, but being able to go with the flow makes life 100x less disappointing, yes? My fiber isn’t as vibrant as I had hoped it would be but it’s perfectly mellow and autumn woods-like and, therefore, a wonderfully perfect souvenir for our weekend away together. And I came home to find my new drop spindle arrived in them mail while I was gone (a 3D printed mini from my friend Jen of TurtleMade – I’ll show you later this week!) so I’m excited to play with it and this fiber and see what pretty thing the finished yarn turns out to be! That blue is a sock blank, and I folded it in half and dip-dyed it with some royal blue Wilton icing coloring. So pretty!
