Dyeing to be Wound!

Hello on this even-more-blazingly-hot Tuesday!  We're deploying the AC units and running fans inbetween.  We're expecting the cold front tomorrow, and will greet it with wilted enthusiasm.

Here are the bamboo/wool yarns we dyed for LW, soon to be wound into cakes for her knitting enjoyment:


In the middle is a delicious adult beverage that Neuro brought.  Just perfect for a hot weather cocktail!!

Stay safe and cool!!

The bamboo yarn is so soft and beautiful. Knitting with it is so lovely.
Yesterday afternoon our temperature went from 93.5 to 78 in about half an hour! It was rather weird! Enjoy being cool!

These are  Crazy For You socks.  They haven't told me yet exactly whom they are crazy for , but I'll let them ponder that for a while.  It appears I may have caught a bit of Knitting New England's Tangerine Tango  with all of these orangey colors!

So, they are becoming Wingspans instead. I finished the first one last night, and cast on the second one this morning. They are, indeed, a pleasurable and addictive knit!
