I am currently involved in two yarn swaps with the themes "Spring" and "A painting of your choice"
I thought i would try out some acid dyes for the firs time for these swaps and i am SUPER impressed with the results.
For the painting swap, my swapee chose this painting as inspiration
here is the yarn drying after dyeing it
Amd reskiened ready to go!
For the "Spring" swap i decided to go for a "Lion in the Meadow' theme with golden yellows and grassy greens.
here it is being rinsed....
Drying.......
And i cant believe i didnt take a photo of it all balled up before sending! doh!

Oh they are beautiful! I especially love the lavendar fields one. Makes me want to learn to knit ;-)
aww thanks!! i am super proud of them too :)
You really should learn how to knit, ive only been knitting for 4 months or so but completly addicted hehe.
Learning is the easy part, deciding what projects to cast on when you have 100 in your queue is the hard part hahaha
