Today was an amazing day! My friend Sue and I drove through to Heidelberg and attended a wonderful dyeing workshop at the Colourspun Studio with Carle' of Nurturing Fibres. It was lovely, we met quite a few people off of Ravelry and had a grand day dyeing yarn together...
Colourspun Studio
I bought this cotton from Colourspun and I have decided to use it to make Kye a Milo Vest, a sweet pattern off of Ravelry. I have already cast on and I am so looking forward to knitting tonight:)
Tomorrow I will be hosting a yarn giveaway from Colourspun, have a wonderful day xo Linda
That looks like so much fun! All those wonderful colors!
ReplyDeleteOh what a delightful shop! I wonder if we have anything remotely like that around here that would teach how to hand dye..
ReplyDeleteMmmm....this studio is dreamy! Happy knitting!
ReplyDeleteOh that looks like a beautiful way to spend a day! I'm going to have to keep my eyes and ears peeled for a workshop like that around these here parts!

Heidelberg? Is there a Heidelberg in SouthAfrica? I didn't know that. Looks like a really fun place to do go to!
ReplyDeleteLike Rachel needs another thing to fall in love with. I can see that she and I live in the wrong hemisphere. That yard seems delicious. I want to join the giveaway. I will try to stay awake long enough to throw in my lot. Can't wait to see the vest.
ReplyDeletelooks like a great day! Love the milo vest, it is one of my favorite patterns.
ReplyDeleteA yarn dyeing day sounds positively dreamy. The colourway of the cotton is lovely. I look forward to seeing the vest.
ReplyDeleteOh, Linda, what fun! I must find some tutorials on "kitchen dying" yarn and do some up for a Milo myself. I have been wanting to knit one, but putting it off waiting to purchase "the right yarn". Now you have me thinking to make the right yarn myself.
ReplyDeletewhat a joy to be surrounded by all that color!! i dyed yarn today, too. ;) it was part of my foundation studies class. so delightful!
ReplyDeleteSounds like great fun, I'd love to go to something like that!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a fun workshop. I would love to attend a class on dying yarn. Love, love, love that blue and brown yarn you bought! Those colors look so good together.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic opportunity to attend this workshop, Linda. It must have been so good.
ReplyDeleteFun!!! I just love those colors.
