Pics of the mad dyeing experiment

OK, so here's what I did last night. If you click on the photo, it should take you to the album with closeups of both batches...I hope. *g*

I'm rather pleased with how the colors turned out. Soon as they dry, I'll run them thru the drumcarder and start spinning.

Rant - you have been warned!

This rant's been kicking around in my head since my "demo" at church last Saturday. A lot - and I mean a lot - of people came up to me over the course of the evening and made remarks like "Wow, I didn't know people could make yarn that nice!" and "Gee, it looks like the stuff you can buy!" and the like. It got me thinking...and that's always dangerous.

Please note - this is MY OPINION. You don't agree, fine - let's discuss it politely, OK? I'm not pointing fingers, I'm not calling anyone names.....I don't mind people disagreeing with me. It makes for interesting conversation and growth on both sides.

So, into the fray go I )

So, discuss.......let me know *your* views on this. Concurring, dissenting, spinner, non-spinner - let's discuss this.
