Well, the dye lost its brilliant orange color and
ended up a nice golden hay color.
I left one skein in the dye bath overnight to see if it would darken
but the color was the same this morning.
I'll use the remaining dye as a base for a bag of red onion skins
collected from the grocery store.
The grey sweater was finished last night and blocked this morning.
It's as soft as a cloud and the fit is loose and very comfortable.
I didn't get to plant the seedlings as planned, soon...
The morning is grey but vibrating with the acidic green of new leaves
and the smell of rain and chlorophyll.
Spring
