Yarn

Since some of you asked, here's some of the yarn I dyed this weekend. It's some Blackberry Ridge Merino that my friend Beth sent me (heart!). I kettle dyed it using professional acid dyes in red and brown. Some bits are a little too pink for Baxter, so I may have to make something for myself with it. I love kettle dying because there are no striping or pooling issues with the colors when it's knit up.

I also dyed some Cestari wool in browns, yellow and greens. But I'm not 100% sure I like it, so I may dye over some of the bits. The more I see it the more it grows on me though. So I'll share pictures once I decide :)
