Dye pots

I have been a bit short on blogging material the last couple of days, but I have been up to a few crafty things. I broke out the dye pots and have been doing quite a bit of that. Unfortunately I have now run out of vinegar, and can't go out to get more until the post has been (waiting for a parcel of supplies).

Since today is a week day I have work to do, but dunking yarn in tubs makes for a nice break and once it is in the oven it takes care of itself.

Finished yarn should be ready for display soon, in the mean time here's a pretty display of dye pots.

A whole rainbow of colours, although some are hard to see. I love Doritos salsa pots for mixing dye in. It is possible I eat too much salsa as this time last year I had no dye stuff, and now I have 8 jars. 8 jars in a year? Doesn't sound like much, but I'm sure each one hangs around the fridge for at least a month. Actually it is probably more than 8, I didn't make the connection between the jars and the dye for a while. But recycling is good. And nachos- mmmmmmmm!

  1. tehehe, don't feel bad about the salsa jars. I buy chocolate covered raisins for my Grumpy. He has emptied quite a few plastic containers of them in the last year which means storage for me too. Yikes!
