This one's for me.....

Trying to perfect the "Sherbert" colourway, so I dyed up some Heirloom Bliss (think: squish) for myself.  I have now worked it so that the trim colour decides the proportion of the colour in the skein.  The colours took a little bit differently on this skein due to the base colour being a stone colour instead of natural.

So this one is going to become a skirt I have running around in my head for a few weeks now.  Unless someone makes grabby hands at it.  I'm a sucker for grabby hands lol.

Blogtober Day 26: Out of the Dyepot

I dyed up some yarn yesterday for my friend Pip (yet another gorgeous soul!).  These are both on Woolganics yarn - the very best handwash yarn on the planet. Seriously, the absolute best!

This blue toned colourway is named 'Kyle' and this lot is on the 8ply Woolganics.

The pink one here is named 'Kyla' funnily enough!  This is on the 12ply Woolganics.  Just. So. Squishy!

Blogtober Day 8: Dyeing up some pretties

All three of these sets of beauties are going to a friend of mine, Karla.

Technically I only custom dyed two sets for her (the top two) - but she saw the third one and wanted it too and made grabby hands at it so she's getting it. She's a wee bit of an addict. I love her to bits! Karla makes the most amazing stitch markers and dyes a mean skein of yarn herself, I'm pretty sure one day she'll be selling knitteds too as her work there is amazing also.

Isn't it fantastic when you find friendship with somebody who lifts your spirits? I have been very blessed to find many such people in my life, mainly through online friendships, and Karla is one of these people. She makes me laugh. A lot! I can generally expect to have a smile on my face after every exchange we have. But she also understands the more serious things aswell. She is kind and generous, giving and understanding. I would love to live close to her, and am jealous of the ladies who get to call her a real life friend. *mwa* Karla, you are a rocking chick and I am thankful to have you in my life.

Late Start to Blogtober! - Day 1 post

I need to catch up!  I missed the start of Blogtober.  I blame the children being on school holidays.  My brain kinda goes to mush when that happens.

So, here's post number 1 - Let's see if there's a photo I took on the 1st.....

Ah, yes, let's see......here's some yarn I dyed on the 1st.....

The top one is on BFL and the bottom on WOOLganics 10ply.
