Hello Everyone, it's been awhile since I last wrote. Anyway on Thursday I was away for the day at a Spinners & Weavers Exhibition at Cambridge when I got home there was a message from someone who was in Auckland & who at the last minute had heard she could attend the above workshop but had none of the yarn required and could she get it from SETS. I thought yes she could but she wouldn't be able to wind down the requirements in time so I would wind down some of my stash for her........at the same time I wondered in the spur of the moment was there room for me to attend. So rang the convenor and learnt there was a cancellation! So yesterday afternoon I turned up to the venue with mine and Di's yarns and had a lovely afternoon with 19 others making colourful yarns/sliver/fleece & fabric swatches. They are now all drying in the bathroom as it's raining cats and dogs here today along with a hail storm thrown in for good measure. And I have a variety of colourways because I just sloshed on this, that & the other! All very easy if you have a dedicated microwave [the Guild has one for us to use], easy to use dyes [Landscape brand], easy peasy instructions as well. Probably not done scientifically but just as fun as you never know what you will get.
