Dyeing yarns too

There was more yarn in the attic, begging to be dyed. Especially this baby yarn had been yellow for long enough!






It had probably been yellow for over fourty years. Mrs. T. guesses her grandmother bought it in the sixties, because in that decade all her grandchildren were born.

Yarnsellers really should put dates on their wraps!

Of course this time Mrs. T. checked the quality of the yarn first. (She had to wind it on skeins anyway) No yarn breaks this time.


This time Mrs. T. only used blue and yellow dye, in order to get a blue-green-yellowish result.
