What The Latest Colors Look Like
I unwound the skeins today and saw just what I created. I love the variegated colors and the bits of white. This wasn't quite what I was aiming at, but I like the results. Dyeing is not for the anal retentive.

Now those look really nice and eminently usable. Think you are getting to the look you want?
if you have access to any plastic syringes I have filled them with dye and stuck them into balls of yarn injecting the dye inside, several colors at a time. always interesting.

I love the variegated colors. Don't you just love happy accidents.

those look wonderful! and you will get yet another surprise when you start working them up -- the colors will stripe or pool in unexpected ways
I love doing hand dyed stuff just because there is always that unknown factor that adds to the excitement
looking forward to what you do with these next
I love the colours. What kind of dye are you using? I always forget to dye things even though I have a lot of it in the cupboard. Thanks for sharing.
I like variegated colors so much better than solids. These will have depth and interest when you knit or crochet with them.
