(Never done any myself... So much fun awaits me in weaving and in spinning that I daren't get I to dyeing as well - I'd never finish anything at all!) Can't wait to see what you make with it - and I don't have to wait, just press a button!Katilinumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03343444981925005656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1975233729836030720.post-65058597992089651812014-01-21T23:09:49.831+00:002014-01-21T23:09:49.831+00:00I have heard that Australian Bond fleece is fabulo...I have heard that Australian Bond fleece is fabulous - do you spin with it, would you agree and if so, where would you buy it?

A willingness to go with the flow would have saved me a fair bit of angst. Should just have been grateful it didn't turn out beige :) Fran Rushworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09742656242582509967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1975233729836030720.post-15379452034500920682013-10-12T10:53:49.328+01:002013-10-12T10:53:49.328+01:00lovely colourslovely coloursAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1975233729836030720.post-50990845472030669472013-10-11T20:57:21.231+01:002013-10-11T20:57:21.231+01:00WOW, I love the turquoise too!

I think you did pretty good with your autumn leaf dye.<br />goldiloxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08770495557282483217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1975233729836030720.post-19790251401024069332013-10-11T20:22:09.688+01:002013-10-11T20:22:09.688+01:00This is some good dye work!

I like that turquoise, though, its transformation, and the resultant mix of colors -- very beautiful!spinlilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01399816284922227028noreply@blogger.com
