In the Dyepot this week - Remington



















Here's the latest out of the dyepots this week. I did a test roving on Colonial superwash wool to see if I liked the colorway I created. I really like it; it came out more intense than I anticipated but it works. I named this colorway Remington. It is the May Split Rock Ranch Roving of the Month Club colorway, available only to members of the club. Want one? Just purchase a Roving of the Month Club membership from my etsy store!

I am going to try some different colors soon to see if I can create what I orginally envisioned. I always say there are no dyeing mistakes, only fiber art you didn't plan on!

Dyed Fleeces Now Available in Etsy Store!

I have been dyeing wool fleeces over the past couple of weeks, trying to get some of my enormous fleece stash sold and shipped to make room for more fleeces since shearing season will be here before we know it.

These fleeces are perfect for spinning, wet felting, needle felting, fiber art or even doll hair.

The latest fleeces are:

Field of Clover - Lincoln



Lincoln fleece with longer staple length of 5+" dyed in the kettle using Sky Blue, Emerald and Sunny Yellow to create a gorgeous green/blue fleece that I named Field of Clover. I split this fleece into two parts in my etsy store - each batch weighs 5.9 oz for a total of 11.8 oz if you purchase both batches. Here is the link to that listing: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=20933354

Bronzed Burgundy - Border Leicester



Border Leicester fleece with a staple length of about 4" dyed in the kettle using Burgundy, Golden Yellow and Burnt Orange - a variation of my Bronzed Burgundy colorway - very rich and elegant and one of my most popular colorways. Again, I split this fleece into two parts in my etsy store - each batch weighs about 6.3 oz for a total of 12.6 oz if you purchase both batches. Here is the link to that listing: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_1&listing_id=20931507
