50 skeins of silk dyed todayThe dyeing went quite well. I got four dyepots done (two colours per skein) and some of the colours are unusual but attractive, I think.
The red/green at the bottom will look terrific with a dark teal weft – it will be hard to put these skeins up for sale!
The blue/purple above the red/green also looks great in real life. The light purple is not solid but shades from a pale almost pink to a lavender.
I’m really happy with the turquoise/blue. The red/blue isn’t my personal taste, but looks pretty good for ‘spring’ type people. The red in these skeins is more of a coral colour.
These are 50 gram skeins. In future if I import more yarn I’ll get it done in 100 gram skeins, so I’ll sell this yarn two skeins at a time. That should give enough for a scarf warp at 30 epi.
It should show up on my Art Fire store in a few days as it will take a couple days to dry.
