Sorry this is later than usual. Our cable (and consequently our internet service) has been out since last night). That's today's equivalent of saying "The dog ate my homework" I guess!
I finished the final steps of the sock blank dyeing experiment. After unraveling it all (because I have ZERO interest in knitting from the blank) I had what Kathryn referred to as Ramen Noodles. Tru dat! The unravelling process was cumbersome and tedious until I corralled a few 11-year old girls to wind it up on to paper towel rolls at the same time. The blue-green and orange skein was a single knit blank from Plymouth and that wound off beautifully on to the niddy-noddy all by itself.
From there the skeins took a long, really, really hot bath in Eucalan in separate tubs as they had not previously been rinsed at all. There was significant dye run off. Imagine that part as I forgot to take pictures.
There was a lot of weighted hanging around time. Heavy weights. I found them in the shop. They were industrial strength Master locks. Yeah!
