New 70% Baby Alpaca/ 30% Mulberry Silk coming soon...and Homesickness

Just finished to Dye two skeins of alpaca/silk totally by intuition...

Have no idea what will be the result and did the same to two discontinued australian merino superfine yarn I found undyed in my stock...

Lets see how it looks tomorrow or in 2 days (fog have been our  best friend these days :(

The experience involved at least 6 basic colors :) It will be a multicolored yarns but not a rainbow thing.

And I was very happy today to know my client in France loved the oxblood Silk lace skeins.

Always nice to see someone admiring your work and share it, something that is not a very great part of the culture in the country I live...for now! Worst. Felt for the first time in my life gender discrimination written in black and white!!!

You can break your ass working here and nobody cares, so different from Montreal..

And I'm so so so homesick right now...

And looking forward to knit like this again, but my brain is not ready. I'm even become dyslexic when I write any line and in any language...

Just made a "Royal Blue" with a new technique I improvised...Lets see how it comes out when dryed :)

Slowly coming back to knitting....

As you may have noted, I have hand dyed much more than usual...
It  happened because I was unable to knit for medical reasons...
I started slowly with only knits stitches and took back my "Cameo" shawl from PaulinaP. You can find the pattern on Ravelry here:
http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cameo-8
I'm only in the beginning so it's just knits, kf/b and picot.
Not ready to get back to lacy shawls yet...and I don't think I will be able soon..Still having trouble to fix things in my head... :(
I'm using a beautiful semi solid brown BFL wool as first colour...the yarn is gorgeous to knit with. So soft and have a beautiful shine. BFL wools makes beautiful shades of browns, almost like if it had some silk in it :)
