walnut

Getting ready to warp the loom again - but before I had some dyeing to do
Walnuts are amazing - they give a wonderful rich brown -
and you don't need to mordant the yarn before dyeing it!

Margreet,
the skein on the left is the silk I bought at Lincoln market on the day with you, and the one on the right is a blend merino-silk! They are so soft!!!!
