Your dyed yarn dreamcatcher is genius! I just made one with my daughter yesterday. She's on a native american kick as documented in my latest blog post; http://littleoceanandme.blogspot.com/
I love the way the colors turned out! That dishcloth is going to be a gorgeous-- truly an elevation of the everyday object. Looks like you mix your own colors, but would you mind sharing what sort of dye you use?
I used Jacquard Procion MX, but that's really more for fabric. I think Jacquard makes ones specifically for yarn. I just used what I had on hand and mixed my own colors.
that color combination is so striking on the white, such a great dreamcatcher! Did kitty get any spots of dye on its white fur? thats always entertaining...
That looks like so much fun. And peaceful. I've always wanted to learn/try dyeing yarn or fabric, but I'm afraid I'll have stains all over the floor and my clothes, haha.
jenny, I love the colors of the yarn...actually I love all the mixed colors and patterns in your latest posts :) Hope you are well in your new home...hi from sydney

the dreamcatcher shows off the yarn perfectly.
I really love this and the colours are so beautiful, I especially love the dream catcher. Would you be able to do a tutorial on how you dyed the Yarn?
That's cool. Is it cotton yarn?
I've thought of dyeing yarn lately and this is a great push! Do you have a particular dreamcatcher tutorial you go to?
