Lavender Blue Dilly Dilly








I am trying to imitate some of the colours I see in my garden right now with my hand dyeing.
It is always a surprise after spinning the dyed roving to see the finished result, and I am pretty happy with these soft lavender colours. The handspun yarn is 50% merino and 50% silk, 245 yards and is 12 w.p.i...soft, soft,silky soft.

I can't wait to see what you make of it!

The blue flowers are looking so gorgeous glowing in the lovely garden and waving in the air.
