I've been working on projects but only in bits and pieces and felt like I had nothing to share.
This weekend I've been working on some cotton fibre, both yarn and knitted items...they are for the dishcloths I knit.
Gathered up some yarn, some in the ball and others as the knitted dishcloth and another I wound a ball onto my swift to create a hank.
I split them into 3 groups. and put them in vinegar plus water. This is to help the cotton absorb the colour. Next I put them in plastic bag and added some food colouring then sealed up bag and squished the coloured around. one bag had pink, another blue and the 3rd one some blue plus yellow to make green.
Next I will leave to soak overnight and tomorrow I will soak in a salt solution to set the dye.
I'll check in backsoon and share my results.
Until next time take care, enjoy your fibre crafts and have a great night, week. :)
