#indiedyer

turning one of my first ever hand dyed yarns into a pair o socks. it’s amazing what you can do with a little food colouring #knitting #socks #indiedyer #yarnporn

It’s a horrible grey, wet Exmoor day, but it’s been a lot brighter since the postman brought me this surprise package……
OMG!!!! Emma, it’s absolutely stunning, as soon as I saw the colours my brain started buzzing.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you
