A dyeing day yesterday.

pinks and yellows

And a washing day (first of two) today.

reds
blues, pinks, purples

Greens and browns tomorrow.

It will be the middle of next week before everything is washed, rinsed and dried, then it will take me a week or two to sort, label, rewind where necessary, photograph and list. I’m hoping to have them in the shop around the end of January, house move depending (yes, we’re still on the edge of our seats here waiting for dates).

There won’t be much else happening here while this is in progress so if I’m particularly quiet, I’m probably just up to my elbows in thread. And what better place to be?

    1. you can unsubscribe yourself at any time, Mavis, but of course I’ll be happy to do it for you. This is a blog post, by the way, not a newsletter.

    1. so far it’s been an entire day of untangling, and sometimes that’s just how it is. A bit frustrating but everything happens in its own time and it will all be ok eventually.

  1. The colours look amazing and I admire your patence and tenacity in untangling them all.

    1. thank you – still no further progress (it can’t possibly take nearly six months to organise a fairly simple house move – oh wait, apparently yes it can…) but surely something will happen soon 🤞🏻🤞🏻
