Last nights dye was a trim to match the first ball
Today was an interesting dyeing session, the yarn had been soaking for almost 24hrs in the vinegar solution by the time I got to it. When I put the dye in, it instantly sucked it up into the yarn in vibrant colours leaving all the water behind in the tray. I had to keep making up and adding more dye but I think it turned out really well. Not quite the lighter shades I was going for but I love it all the same. And its lovely BWM Luxury, so much nicer than the spotlight yarn I dyed first. I can't believe this is from simply using Queens food colouring.
I twisted the skein for the pic but its actually back hanging to dry now. I can't wait to see how it looks when its balled.
