In addition to playing with Yak fiber this week. I tried another natural dyeing project as well. I picked some Queen Anne’s Lace and steeped it on low for 2 hours.
I mordanted some superwash wool in alum and cream of tarter for 90 minutes. Then I dyed the wool. Here is what happened.
It came out a lovely yellow green color.
I also did some more canning this week. I had been given a bunch of pears. So many in fact I had to freeze some as our fridge was full. I made canned pears and pear butter(similar to apple butter but made with pears of course).
I also finished my Kerchief project. It came out a bit heavier than I thought but will be great as I wear hats even in the house during the winter.
The animals are loving their new fan in the barn.
Sorry for the late post internet issues kept me from posting yesterday.
