FUN!

Happy Easter
Happy Easter Donna and Tom!
Love the eggs!
Did you dye the bunny wool with easter egg coloring?
I’ve never tried that- only kool aid!
Thanks guys. I hope you all had nice Easters.
And Denise, I did use the easter eggs dye. I saw this on an Angora blog and thought since I had leftover dye I would try it. I just threw raw white Satin Angora wool in. As it has dried it has become more pastel in color but pretty. I think I will throw each color separately on the drum carder and then spin each color in succession, yellow, green, blue, purple, red, pink. I have not gotten as far as to figure out plying yet. Maybe it with some white Shetland wool.
