I've been sorting, washing and dyeing fleeces for the past couple weeks, trying to get a batch ready to send to Stonehedge in the hopes I can get it back in time for the Wooster fiber festival. These are the colors I'm thinking of using - 2 parts orange, 2 parts fuscia, 1 part marigold, 1 part lilac. The lilac is scaring me a little - not sure if its too dark and too blue, so I'm going to do a test batch on my viking combs once the pink dries and see how it spins up.
