dyeing all day

This is what I did during the snow storm.  Dyed all day!
6 skeins of this:  It’s darker than it looks, more like a merlot with pale rose and a burnt orange.   1050 yds.

and 10 skeins of a purple / olive blend..  It’s so hard to get the colors to come out exactly right.  1750 yds. 

I’ve decided to start selling some of this stuff, I can’t possibly use all I make.  Interested?  I’ll post more in a day or so to a file on the side bar.  But these… how about $15.00 / skein?  It’s a merino & silk single, about a fingering wt. and 175 yds each.  I’ve been working on this stuff since late in the summer and have used it for a shawl with a beaded edge.  I’m thinking I’ll take some with me to Florida next week (while we’re there looking after C’s mother, there will be loads of time on my hands)  and start another shawl, maybe the flower basket this time.  I have a feeling that the gold teeswater will be a bit heavy to work on if it’s warm down there.  I mean WARM, here we sit on the porch and have tea if the temps go into the 20’s and the sun is out.
