I Have Been Dying To Be Dyeing Yarn







Well all of my supplies came today from KnitPicks and I am going to be up most of the night but I am so excited to be dyeing my first skein of yarn. I have still not even decided what colors to use but I saw some online in a colorway called Run Like Hell and it was so pretty that I am hoping to recreate it. So here are the pics of the yarn I am using, the dyes I am using and the stuff all layed out soaking in the warm water for 20 minutes looking like bad spaghetti. LOl
They say you can tell when it is ready to go cause it " blooms". We will see. Hugs. JoyB

I got a new camera !!!!!!!!!!!!





































OK so from the top I got Angel, my cowl and the yarn I am using for it, my brand new bobbles, some amazing yarn from Sundara that I am going to knit myself something special with and last but not least. A current picture of Idgit. Gotta love my kitties. Oh the Bobble hat was a gift from PattM in our Jan swap ( isn't it fantastic!!) and the beret is something I made up for myself. hugs. JoyB

Ok so they are all out of order but I think you can figure out what is what LOL JB

Bad camera





























Ok I couldn't wait anymore and had to share some pics but please excuse the fact that the pics are awful. I had to tape together an old camera to get these but since I wanted to take pics of the things I finished for my swaps and the snow we are getting, this will have to do. Hugs. JoyB
