How I Spent my Weekend

This and about five bajillion loads of laundry. I got a little crazy with the dyes, and once I got started I couldn't stop dyeing everything in sight whether it had been rewound for stripes or not. The second from the left was a bit of an accident. It started off with "Oh, look. I have some extra red dye in this here bottle. I'll just use it up and mix it with some other colors." Then, Joe came through the kitchen and I said "Look, honey. I made some really ugly yarn." The next day I overdyed the whole skein with some pink, and now it looks like, well, maybe just maybe someone would want to knit with it. I think it has a kind of pirate theme look to it. Maybe. The rest I am fairly happy with. We'll see how the striping ones look when they're wound into normal-sized skeins.

All of these specimens may eventually be up for sale if I can figure out how and where to sell them. Because I think I'm addicted to this yarn-dyeing thing, and the only way I can sustain the habit is to sell some of it off. Can you tell I'm enjoying a late-night beer? Ayup. It's way past my bed time, but I'm waiting for the dryer to finish so I can shift the laundry around before I go to bed. G'night!
