Here's some fun I created from my Dharma Trading order! Last week, I scoured more mohair and dyed it while still damp from the scouring. The color is rich and vibrant, and the teased fiber is so very soft. When I'm done with my orange yarn, I'll do more scouring and dying so I can spin this, too.
This was dyed using more Jacquard acid dyes. The color is violet, really, really violet in person. I also got some cherry red, golden yellow, and chartreuse. (I assume it's supposed to be the same color as absinthe.) While tie dying, I saw a combination of yellow and green that just said, "go get the neon green - now!" And who am I to argue when a drippy drop cloth starts yapping out instructions.
I've started using Ravelry.com as my "current projects" site as well as repository of my stash, library, and queue info. I'm sure that I'll find other uses for it as well.
