Images Window With Holdbacks

Two




Yesterday first dyed yarn and half the success I have outlined. Undoubtedly, I was able to dye it and prevent matting, which is a little scared. However, a dark green color, as it turned out, not stained a nice dark green color, only the cold, blue-green. Wool is not absorbed the dye as it should, so the color is quite pale and try to convince myself that it is more green than blue . Czekam teraz, aż mi się spodoba, i chwilowo jestem zniechęcona do farbowania.

Yesterday I dyed yarn for the first time and was rather successful. The yarn changed colour, which was good, and it didn’t felt, which was even better. But the dark green dye, instead of being the nice dark green I expected, turned out to be a cold, bluish kind of green. The wool didn’t absorb as much dye as it should have done, so the colour is rather pale and I’m trying to make myself believe it’s more green than blue to help it grow on me. Don’t expect any dyeing attempts in the near future.




Meanwhile, frost and snow among the rich celebrate the octave of Christmas, watching a scythe through new binoculars and plan my upcoming trip to the half year to York!

Humourous Wedding Invitation Test






Last week we had problems with the current. He was not just then, When I was needed. It was cold and dark and the only thing I could do was t rzymać in the hands of something warm, a cup of tea or wool . In this way, I finished the socks first, then finished and zeszyłam Long betrothal .

We had problems with electricity supply last week. No electricity When We needed it most. It was cold and dark and I could not think of anything but holding something warm, like a mug of tea or some yarn . And so first I finished the socks, and then the Long Engagement .




Model perfectly. The socks are a little Shorter Than the Original, the reason being of course I did not have enough yarn, but also: who needs socks anyway That long? The purple yarn is the one I'd Brought from Brussels two years ago. I remember asking
myself: "All right, the color is lovely but it's only two skeins, whatever are you going to make out of it?" Well, it was a perfect sock amount.





On this occasion I decided to make it to the sock stretchers (whether it is somehow called in Polish?) With wire hangers. Indeed, we stretch after finishing her work - nicely naciągnęły braids, knit all equalized and socks now look beautiful. For now lie in the closet, but this week 'll pack them in an envelope and send to England
to my friend Isabel, and in January I'll go see if it bears!


I also made a pair of sock blockers out of wire coat hangers. It Seems blocking your knits May be worth it - the cables and the stitches were evened out beautifully and the socks look perfect now. Towards the end
