I used food coloring to dye a couple hanks of KnitPicks dye your own fingering weight merino.  I&#8217;ve had the yarn laying around for awhile, but had never done anything with it.  Then, last week I get the itch to dye something.  I didn&#8217;t feel like getting completely messy, that&#8217;s why I went with the food coloring rather than the acid dyes. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/zardra\/249883227\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block;text-align:center;cursor:hand;width:320px;margin:0 auto 10px;\" src=\"http:\/\/static.flickr.com\/86\/249883227_14d2cbe442_o.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><br \/>In current knitting, I&#8217;m avoiding the Faux Russian Stole.  Not sure why.  Could be the size of the chart.  But I haven&#8217;t even managed to complete one chart repeat yet.  In it&#8217;s place, I&#8217;ve finished my Canadian scarf and started a hat for the husband.  It&#8217;s just a basic hat, no real pattern, out of black Lana Gatto Feeling.  I should also be receiving an order from Webs today containing Araucania Nature Wool in the grey colorway.  I&#8217;m hoping this will work for Durrow.  My order of Silky Wool arrived a couple of weeks ago, but it&#8217;s a lighter yarn than I remembered (cause looking at the gauge details on the website didn&#8217;t register).  But, I can make a nice sweater out it down the road, I&#8217;m sure. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s eye candy is some yarn that I dyed last weekend.
