I finally finished skirting all of this year's fleece Sunday. Its washed and on the screens to dry. Here are the colors that will be blended into my latest roving - teal, spruce, saphire, and kelly green. I plan to have it blended thoroughly so the different colors will just give depth to the finished yarns. I have not decided on a name yet - I'll wait to see the finished product.The only wool I have in the house now is a grocery bag full of tiny pencil locks I will wash and then dye in multiple colors and then bag up to sell as locks.
Wow, Lisa, these colors look so rich! I can't wait till you have it all completed. Put me down for a batch--I can't wait!
ReplyDeleteOh, I LOVE those colors! What kind of dye did you use?
ReplyDeleteI used all Jaquard colors.
ReplyDeleteTeal
Spruce
Sapphire (or Brilliant blue, I'd need to check the bottle)
Kelly Green
The wool on the trays is Spruce with some blue and Christmas Green added to make sure I had enough dye to saturate the fiber. I don't know the maker of the green -my friend buys it in bulk.
Spruce is a WONDERFUL color! :^)
What beautiful colors! I can't find any BFL to spin in Southern Indiana. I'd love to have some to this.
