Here is a picture of the lilac/periwinkle/fuschia casserole dye batch from Sunday afternoon.


Believe it or not - I now have all of this past fall's wool skirted, sorted, washed, and dyed. As soon as the last batches on the drying rack are ready, I'll mix the colors by handfuls of locks, box it up, and off to Stonehedge in MI it goes. Luckily, Debbie (McDermott) is much faster than I, and I expect it will be back in a couple weeks. So I DID IT! I got all the wool out of the house! I'll post a picture of the colors I'm having blended as soon as the last 3 colors are dry.


Of course, Saturday, we'll have 36 sheep sheared, and I'll have 36 fleeces to skirt, sort, wash, and dye........................
