Yarn dyeing fun!

Yikes, sorry I disappeared for so many days. I have a wonderful reason. I made myself a warping board and have been experimenting with dyeing self-striping yarn. It has been so much fun I kind of got lost in it. I plan on dyeing some up and starting an Etsy shop.

Here are some of my trial yarns:

Speckled Rainbow - reminds me of my niece, Eleanor, bright and happy

Heathered Yellowstone - inspired by a picture my sister, Rhoni, took at Yellowstone. I so want to visit Yellowstone now.

I just cannot put into words the enjoyment I took from dyeing these up. I hope to do more soon!
