i followed meegwetchs journal to yours...have some common interests, so if you'd like to add me feel free to! (now off to check out your art journal...yay!)
i love your yarns! i was wondering though, how did you get the olive color you used in your peter rabbit yarn? i can't find an olive color anywhere that comes out how i want it, and i've asked around a few places and no one has an answer for me. :-( will you give me your secrets please?
actually, i lucked out on that one and bought a bag of mixed merino staples and it was part of it. Ashford seems to have it in corriedale here: http://www.ashford.co.nz/fibres/fibres-main.htm
garg! foiled again! thanks ... if i get in a really tight spot i guess i'll give in and just order it from there. i can't believe i'm having such a hard time finding olive dye! it's so weird.
hmm..i will check the RIT dyes. i have found a way to use them that you can get the real true colour. basically you would use them like koolaid dyeing with the boiling water and vinegar in a pot to colour fast them. i will see. i know there is a fabric store near me that has a huge colour selection..hmm...
