Firstly, can I say how much I hate spinning dyed fleece, I always forget until I try it the next time. Its normally not so bad if I steam fix the colour but this time I was lazy and chucked it in the slow cooker that I sometimes use to dye my spun yarn.
Because it was the end of a fleece, the bits that I hadn't been bothered to process, the result is quite neppy and uneven. Also my heart really isn't feeling a great deal of love for the colour at the moment.
This little lot went in the wash bucket
Does everyone's wash line look like this on a fine day ?
I also have a sewing task to start on. I plan to make drawstring bags to keep things tidy in the van. We have walking poles that would go in one and I need a smaller one for my sharp ( very sharp knives and bread knife which I keep separate to the normal cutlery)
Some lovely offcuts were given to me a few years ago so I may just patchwork them them randomly for this.
Tonight will be fibre prep ready for tomorrow morning.
Take care xx
