I was reading a post (here) on how to dye roving with easter egg dyes and since I had 100 grams of lincoln lamb roving which I bought when we picked up my spinning wheel…..I HAD to try it!
Excellent, Easy, with Awesome results!
I love it. Can’t wait to spin it!
I’ve been spinning the second ply for my SW Merino from SakinaNeedles and I’m aiming for a very thin yarn…wondering if maybe I can enter the spinalong for April after all…
Either way…this is going to make some beautiful light weight yarn! Another thing I cant wait to see finished 🙂
Jeanie is coming along nicely…I finished a couple repeats today. It’s an easy project to pick up and put down because the pattern is pretty simple once you get used to it. I always mark my rows, with pencil, in the margin, mind you…
I’ve seen a few people dye with easter egg dye now – is there a particular brand that you use or does it not matter? Your results look great!
I used the ‘dudley’ dye pack…the cheapest one that comes with the stickers and nothing else. I don’t think it matters really though. I’m wondering if different sets/packs have different shades or colours. The one I bought was on sale for 79 cents so it was the ONE 🙂
My jaw is on the floor from the spinning pics. Absolutely gorgeous.
