Procion Dyeing

My sister held a dyeing day here last Sunday. Five people madly dyeing bits of cotton with Procion and enjoying themselves a lot. The next day we cleared up but not completely. I overdyed one of the ice dyed Tshirt with blue and improved it a lot but I am left with a splotch of dark dyed in the middle of the front. I have decided I will have to stencil a pattern in a dark dye on it.

I also took several skeins of white in various yarns, cotton, silk and a rayon/flax/cotton mix and used some leftover dye to dye the lot in shades of dusky pink


Top is the fibre mixture. Lower is cotton on the left and silk on the right. This is a newly minted program of using the stash up.

I am progressing in health but a bit fed up. I tire very easily so do not get much done. Oh well.
