Seattle got to experience a few days of glorious weather. The sun inspires me to dye because I know it will help me dry in a fraction of the time it would take indoors. This time I decided to try a dye brand that's new to me even though it's been around since 1879. I bought Cushing's Olive Green, Green, and Bright Green. I started with the Bright Green and dyed 8 oz
Norwegian White roving. I had never heard of Norwegian White before but a google search got me up to speed on this type of wool. After spending just an half hour on the stove, I left the roving in the dye pot over night. In the morning the water was clear. I drained it off and rinsed the roving and laid it outside to dry. It was almost 70 degrees out and by evening the roving was dry.
Now the rain it back and I can sit inside and spin up my spring time yarn.
