  Hand Dyed Fabric & Threads — Authority: 118
  About 1o years ago I bought 2 hats from the markets. I love these hats as they stay on no matter how windy it is. I bought the cream one first and then realised that it was an impractical colour for gardening etc. So I bought the navy one. While we were away I considered buying a new hat but quickly reconsidered when ...

  Yarn Zombie — Authority: 108
  So here’s some insanely bright mohair yarn that I dyed. I think I shall name this yarn “OMG! MOHAIR! KITTENZ! RAAAAINBOW POOPS!’ Or something like that. The weather has been nice the past week, so I’ve gotten a bunch of dyeing done. I should have a shop update sometime later this week. Bela ...

  Gene's Rug Hooking Blog — Authority: 127
  In anticipation of the International Rug Rave (a simultaneous, world wide  event  on November 21, being carried out to draw attention to Heather Ritchie’s work with the blind in Gambia) I decided to do a bit of experimentation last night.  After all, since I am coordinating the Orange County California ...

  Crafting Chaos — Authority: 118
  My yarn and socks are rinsed and dried. I’m very happy with the results! I used Jacquard Acid Dyes in Kelly Green and Chartreuse. The natural heathering makes the dye job heathered. I’ll be using these for a fiber art piece. I’m making a Green Man and will be knitting a ton of green leaves. I’m ...

  ever green knits — Authority: 110
  I got a precious dose of autumn this weekend on another visit to Lower Devils Canyon. The seasonal changes in the desert proper are subtle, too subtle for a newcomer like me to appreciate. But the creek running through the canyon was another story. Ok, its still subtle by my Vermont standards, but out here its ...

  Bunks' Blog — Authority: 103
  Back at the beginning of August I blogged about a technique called Kumo – spider web – shibori and mentioned I was going to use the fabric in a project. The link is here: Spider Web Shibori to see the fabric. I didn’t want to post a picture of my project because it was a gift for a friend overseas and since ...

  KnitterMan — Authority: 125
  Okay…. So here we have the new Hadrian’s Wall: taken from this postcard: It appears the blue picked up both the sky blue and the reflected blue of the water. I was aiming for the lighest blue, and that’s what went onto the yarn, but in the steamer it set up quite a bit richer than I expected — and I ...

• More dyed yarn

  
  Knittingdragonflies — Authority: 410
  In the attempt to get a different look to my dyed yarn, I tried to dip the yarn into separate dye pots. Wow, I love the look, clean colors, more definition.  I used this article from Knitty to guide me. Of course it is more work. My hats off to all of you who hand paint yarn! I started with some ...

  Working on the Lily Progress continues on the Colombian Lily, which is what Im calling it until I come up with a better name. Yesterday I got the pattern traced onto a lightweight stabilizer- its kind of obscuring the paper pattern here. You can also see the two color copies I have- one of Marlys actual photo, the ...

  Serendipity and the Art of the Quilt — Authority: 123
  So there I was, just quickly checking some blogs and e-mails before getting started on some sewing, and here I am still at my computer nearly an hour later. Sucked in! but in a good way. It all started when I went to Pink Chalk Studios and read Kathy’s review on Color Your Cloth: A Quilter’s Guide to ...

• What To Do When “Off”

  
  Gene's Rug Hooking Blog — Authority: 127
  Friday is, usually, my day off.  Normally, I dye a bunch of wool or transfer several patterns on Friday.  However, yesterday, I spent most of the day sitting in my chair hooking.  Since that project must remain secret for a while longer, I can’t even show you what I was working on.  However, I do have a shot of ...

  Talking about Weaving — Authority: 123
  Posted by Peg in South Carolina I have now dyed two of the three skeins.  One is dry.  One is dyed, rinsed, and hanging to dry.  And the third is for Tuesday. The one that is dry is very interesting.  I dyed it using 65% yellow green and 35% red violet. In some lights the dyed yarn looks a deep khaki ...

  Knitting on Impulse — Authority: 120
  I definitely dont need a weather report to identify the freezing level these days:   Its a couple degrees above zero and raining hard down here in the valley, which means it is impossible to dress the kids appropriately. Snow gear comes home soaked to the skin, whereas the combo of thick woolly sweater and ...
