| Natural Dye Class Rainbow Of Samples |
I finally got the sample yarn skeins from the natural dyeing class at
The Mannings racked, stacked, & packed. I'll submit 2 pictures to my discerning audience
because it's all about the lighting! I'm particularly fond of the over-dyed and dip-dyed skeins.

| Natural Dye Skeins "Mixed" To Separate Colors |
Definitely click on these pictures to see the colors. The Fustic over-dyed with Indigo gave us the green & yellow/gold skein. That deep purplish skein is another favorite. Look closely at the subtle color variation ... Cochineal also over-dyed with Indigo. The bright yellow/orange/pink dip-dyed skeins look great here and also look good after they were "re-skeined" ... the skein gets a different multi-color strand appeal. It makes you want to go out and set up a batch of dye pots, eh?!? I may be doing a natural dye demo later in September ... what to do, what to do? We didn't even get into Sumac or Walnut in this workshop ...

How pretty!!!
Nice laying them out in a color wheel ... each person took home a whole set for reference.
Oh I love Mannings! I have never thought about taking their natural dye class, but now, after seeing your pictures, I will have to take it!! Love it! I just want to hug all those skeins of yarn!
