Hello there! It's me again! Very inconsistent, aren't I? Just recently I over-dyed some yarn that I purchased a few years ago. Actually, it may have been about five or six years ago but who's counting? Tags are long gone but as I recall it is a merino wool.Various shades of blue (my favorite color). The over-dye was a purple. It turned out so amazing. Not tooting my own horn or anything. No really! It was all about the dye :) I needed to dye this yarn to go with two skeins I purchased at a new yarn shop over in Webb City, MO. Stitch Space. These three yarns are being used for the Happy Street shawl by Veera Valimaki I am working on. I just love her patterns.

Other than knitting, I have been trying to get in a bit of spinning as well. But what with doing a bit of traveling, it can be somewhat difficult to get in all the spinning one would want to! I like to get up to Ontario to visit my parents every so often. Perhaps I need to find a good deal on a wheel up there and just leave it! Hmm.... Good idea Dreabell!
My Happy Street shawl. Please ignore the bug guts on the windshield!

 Happy Knitting!
