I've knitted up the yarn I dyed and spun last week, as I described
here. I think it turned out well, so I'm going to make another batch. I have some dye left over from this project, so I'm using the same colours. But I decided to dye the three colours separately, which will give me more control over the colours when I spin. I didn't want to have to use the oven three times over, so I put the roving into oven bags and cooked them together:
I rinsed the wool and put it out to dry:
It'll soon be ready to spin. Oh, before I forget, the hat pattern is Fishtail Hat Pattern from Knitamaniacs.
LOVE that colourway and the hat pattern too. I’m looking forward to seeing what you do for the next batch.
