Triple Take

I haven't managed to get much knitting done this past week after our quick trip to Colorado. I finished the first Anemoi mitten and am now on the second. That's it. I didn't even manage to get a huge batch of yarn done for the store since I decided to play with a new dyeing technique instead...

Its sort of a combination of techniques; a little bit of handpainting while immersion dyeing. I'm calling the colorways that fall under this category, "Triple Dyes". In most cases I started with a light color, then added two more shades of something that would complement the original color. These additional colors were poured, squirted, splotched and handpainted on. Don't you love my terminology?! In some cases they came out looking like a toned down variegated colorway, while others looked more like a "Not So Solid" (NSS) shade.

Some favorites:




I have 10 different colors to post tomorrow in the store. Some, hopefully finished knits will be coming soon!
