Soursob Surprises
The skein of wool left to cool in the Soursob dyepot overnight has turned out the most fluro yellow, it almost hurts to look at it ha ha. The pic below doesn't do it justice at all!
Adding an iron nail to the pot and a teabag of onion skins I was hoping to get a nice green but......... as usual I was wrong but still really happy with
the deep golds happening on wool fibres. The cotton and silk garments are a deep yellow but may change overnight as the magic pot brews along :)
Just love the surprising nature of this process don't you?? :)
