Yesterday afternoon I got to do some experiments in dyeing at a great studio in Nashville (Indiana). I will give some more info on the studio (and the super helpful/knowledgable woman who runs it) as I get more pictures together, but for now, I just really wanted to throw some pictures of my new yarn up!
It's a two-ply wool that is fairly coarse. I thought it looked kind of like a huge mess while I was painting the dye on the skein, but spun up in a ball it looks edible! I also dyed a warp, that is on my loom now, with a lot of the same colors, so we'll see what the look like when they intersect.
At this point in my weaving education everything is still a huge surprise -- a lovely feeling.

It looks beautiful! I've always wanted to try dyeing my own yarn and to own my very own swift.
Happened to stumble upon your blog, it's lovely!
