yarn project
Remember that dyeing project I was working on a few weeks ago? I decided that the skeins still looked too blue and after a few days of thinking about it, over-dyed them again- this time the full immersion way, in a pot on the stove- more Cushing Aqualon yellow (a sort of greenish yellow).
This swatch is knitted from the center of the skein. The outside yarn is much greener then the inside yarn, so hopefully the knitting would get progressively more green as I went along. I’d like to make a cardigan with this yarn… I am pleased with how it came out.

I have used yarns that were dyed by the manufacturer. I have gotten interesting results. Sometimes I have not been thrilled with the uneven colors, and other times it has knitted up great. It is usually trial and error.
