Well today I spent most of the morning re-skeining the 8 ply indigo dyed wool. It was very repetitive but for once it was fine. I just love the effect that natural dyes have on wool. how the colour is not flat but the eye travels trying to follow the various hues that are together forming the blue. Anyway I could go on for hours. I told them at the knitting group last night that I thought that everyone should have an indigo vat at home.
So if you are interested in indigo but nervous drop me a line.
Our first advert appeared in the Creative fibre magazine. I am really pleased with it. We'll see what happens. It seems to me that it's more the ocassional knitter that is concerned for the environment that is into our product rather than the obsessive knitter. I could yet be proved wrong.
I'll post some pictures tomorrow. I'm too tired today.
