Monday ... with a Side of Yarn =)

We had a LOVELY time in Michigan ... so GOOD to see Family & Friends!
XoXoXoXo

But the rest of the week was very strange ... a Holiday can do that to oneself.
I was off by a day thinking Tuesday was Monday, Wednesday was Tuesday, yada yada.
Very discombobulating to the household rhythm.   

So I decided to dye yarn instead.  =)



I am going to teach a yarn dyeing class at the local library of my hometown in Michigan the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  

Whenever I visit Painted Trillium Yarns I make Wonderful People and Nifty Things like that happen!

So I decided to dye 2 or 3 hanks a dozen hanks of sock yarn to flex my yarn dyeing muscles. 
Each one is SO BEAUTIFUL ... I can hardly believe these colors came from 
Kool Aid and Wiltons Icing Paste.  









And a few more hanging outside to dry.


On a side note ... I wore my Forest Canopy Shawl to church yesterday and received many compliments.  =)

Love ... Erin
