I decided to document my first attempt at dyeing self-striping wool. It was fun. It took for-freakin’-ever, so I’m very grateful I had the common sense to choose a small project — one of the Three Tams — so it was a sane yarn amount to dye up…only 50g/approx 112yds, and it still took an hour.
And was totally worth it. I’m calling the colourway “Self-Portrait” because if I were yarn…this would be me.
Grab some popcorn and a cold one, and enjoy!
