The ice dye bath ^ and the shirt v
A separate tub had a lot of purple so when they got put in the wash that batch added a kind of lavender hue to everything. I don’t hate it, but would probably rinse everything off by hand before putting it in the wash next time to get a bit of the excess dye off

Furrow Cowl: When I did my indigo dye day, I over-dyed some yarn that was leftover from a sweater that I knit last year. After knitting a whole sweater with it, I was pretty tired of looking at the same colour (that pale green in the first photo). I dyed it and was really happy with the colour that it turned out.
I decided to use the indigo-dyed yarn to knit up a Furrow Cowl (pattern in the book “Woolens” by Jared FloodforBrooklyn Tweed). The dyed yarn wasn’t quite the same as in the pattern (was a smaller DK weight rather than worsted), and I didn’t have too much of the yarn, so I figured I’d make a slightly smaller version of the cowl.
I am super pleased with how it came out. After blocking and washing it, it’s very soft and comfy. I’ve been wearing it regularly already, and it makes me really happy to wear something that I both dyed and knit myself!
