The First Dyeing Day for the Year

A pinch and a punch for the first day of the month .....

.... and what a great way to start February than to do some dyeing. Landscape dyes were painted on some Corriedale tops. After they were wrapped in clingfilm, they were placed in plastic bags and steamed for about 30 minutes. Oh by the way, nothing was weighed or timed exactly.

And the results ..... well here they are.....












Aren't they just so colourful ????
