It seems that yesterday Willow thought I might need some help with dyeing. So, she hopped up on my dye table and promptly fell asleep using the yarn I tie the skeins with as a pillow. Wow, is she ever helpful!
I am testing out a new yarn to add to the shop! This is a fingering weight 70/20/10 Baby alpaca/silk/cashmere. This stuff is soooooooooooooooo soft!!! I dyed up a test batch of 2 skeins the other day. What do you think???
What should I do with it?
Oh - and check out these cool pictures I got yesterday of some newts! I was sitting down on our dock seeing what was going on in the water. Luckily, I had the camera in hand. The whole thing probably lasted less than a minute.

Did they just....huh?
And I'd do something lacy with that yarn. I bet it's super soft.
Okay...those pics were a little, mmm, weird.
The yarn? It's beautiful! Obviously, you need to sell it on your webiste. Or you could knit a pretty Ishbel with it!
Woo hoo! Frog secks!
I know exactly what you need to do with that yarn - send it to me!!!! Mwahahahaha!
(trying to stay distracted today)
I love the silly lazy kitty, and those wet...uhhh...friendly? critters are cool, and now I have a serious case of yarn envy!!!
Great post! My cats adopt my WIPs whether knitted, crocheted or quilted.
I LOVE the soft halo on that yarn!
It would feel lovely as a cowl or a small shawl.
And were those baby frogs?
Sorry, I should have been more specific - those are newts! I don't think it was hawt secks I think it was just an "entaglement encounter".
Ahhh...spring! When a young salamander's thoughts turn to...
Neck cozy, cowl, thingy! That yarn needs to be right up next to ya!
Hallo Brittany(sp) from a fellow rebel ravel rowzer:)
tadpoles?? Love the blue yarn!!! cute kitty.
I would knit fingerless mitts and a wee sock for my keychain:)Hugs Darcy
I made up a song about newts when I was in the 5th grade to entertain myself as I walked to the bus stop. I'll have to sing it for you sometime.
That is a lovely shade of blue. And I agree, it should be something lacy. I'll take some, too.
do you breed newts for your witchery...you know, those spells that call for eye of newt??? giggle
