Dyeing Angora Yarns





It's cold and wet, not much can be done outdoors.   It's a good time to spin and dye.   Here is a pot of Angora yarn being dyed on stove pot.   I used Easter egg dye tablets, blue mixed with red to get purple.



The resulting purple Angora nubby yarn.  




Using more Easter egg dye tablets and other food dyes, I got a skein of orange, a skein of orange with green, and a skein of blue and green.



Another purple skein with a skein of red and a skein of green with purple.



The skeins of red and green have a feel of Christmas, a photo with the Christmas bouquet is warranted.
