I wish I could dye all the time, I love when I dye.
Okay, okay, enough of that. It's early, it sounded funnier in my brain.
I love dyeing yarn. Actually, I dont love dyeing the yarn but I love the preparation, the picking out of colors, mixing up different shade and planning what I will do.
You need to use vinegar to dye yarn and I HATE the smell of vinegar. I don't like getting dye on my fingers, or splashed in my face so that later The Mister tells me my nose is a funny shade of yellow. I hate the smell of vinegar.
I love the results, I love seeing how different yarns pick up different shades of color, and how different the yarn looks in the end from how I pictured it in the beginning.
Did I mention I hate the smell of vinegar?
And so, I don't do it very often, but when I do I always think 'I should dye yarn more often.'
This will be a Little MIss Who for Ris eventually. I'm testing the pattern for Keltie, my BKF (Best Knitting Friend)
