Playing at spinning and dyeing

I've been lucky enough to have been lent a spinning wheel and am gradually, very gradually, getting to grips with it...I do enjoy the dyeing of the fleece and combining colours. What I'll do with the hanks of wool I am, as of yet, unsure!

Today's dye pot - using acid dyes fixed with white vinegar ....a Llanwenog/Shetland mix. 

The same dye pot with ready spun Swaledale wool. 

A range of hanks ....
