#SeptTextileLove Day 21: Favourite
Picking a favourite thing or activity is difficult as it's something that constantly changes. But one of my favourites is to spend a day dyeing yarn. The first picture shows my table set up ready to work. The second is dyed yarns. The wool I dyed to knit myself a winter jumper, but as each of the wools was dyed I noticed there was still colour in the dyebaths. So I quickly wet out hanks of the silk I weave with and added more vinegar mordant. I really love the range of shades. Interestingly the blue silks were in the exhaust from the green dye. The wool had taken up all the yellow from the mix. #septtextilelove #septtextilelove2019 #dyersofinstagram #favourite #wool #silk
