Today I dyed up some wool from a sweater I recycled awhile back when I was sick. I figured I was too ill to knit, but I could frog just fine.


These first three skeins I dyed in shades of pink. I think they turned out lovely.
These next three are even better. I mixed only 1 scoop of color of black, yellow and purple. I love how they turned out. Totally unexpected.

I just love how the purple is really a bright pink, and the black isn't harsh at all, the the yellow is bright and mixes so well. It was a pleasent surprise. I like playing with the mixes and getting something totally unknown.I'm going to hunt down some yarn and a couple baby hat patterns and toss them into my lunch bag. If I plan it right I can take a late lunch and start casting on at 2pm. That's the offical start time of the Knitting Olympics. Go me!
I'll try and post some pics of my progress. Or, if I can't take the time away from knitting, of my finished hats. :)

What is up with you and the pink? I'm starting to know real fear.
You know, I'm not sure. But I like pink. There. I said it.
:D
