Gift from Mother Earth - Superwash Merino Wool
Well it turns out that my experiment had good results. The yarns
already have a new owner :)
I'm working on dyeing a #2 batch since my first was only mine for 15 minutes :)
I'm also experimenting new colours on a batch of 3 DK skeins. I don't usually dye DK skeins, only for custom orders because it's a ticker yarn, has approx 225 meters each and the number of skeins needed depends a lot on the project. You can only need 2 or even 6 or more... not like fingering yarns.
Usually 1-2 skeins of fingering are enough for a project (like shawls....one of my addictions :) )

I was very happy with my "Gift from Mother
Earth", now let's see what happens with my new "experiment"
with the DK's yarns...didn't even think about how to call it because I
still don't know what's gonna come out of this one...still on the
pot cooling off.
It feels great to see people appreciate when you do
something you love and not as a "work". And it's a great
helper for my actual issues...These are the moments that make me
feel "alive" through this very though period of my life...

"Gift from Mother Earth" yarn dyeing experiment
Today I used my new hand dyeing technique to try multicolored earthy colours tones...
Just hope it wont be a desaster!
I used the 100% Merino Superwash - fingering.
Let's see tomorrow :)
And if it turns ok, for this one I kept the recipe to do it again :)
