The Artist's Way Week One 8

So this is a continuation of the "imaginary lives" exercise. I wanted to pretend to be a yarnie. So I dyed some of my handspun yarn. This was a pretty easy dye, I used vinegar and food coloring, no fancy chemicals. Anyway, here's a picture of my yarn in its dyebath:



I'll post a picture of the finished skein when it's dry.

To be honest, I probably wouldn't want to be a professional yarnie. I feel like it would probably take some of the joy I experience with fiber art out of the thing. But sometimes it seems appealing.
