The process continues

I have now finished spinning the fleece and have two skeins of gorgeous hand spun yarn ready to dye in stunning colours. I have decided to dye the whole skein in one colour leaving a strip in the middle of the skein undyed so when warping and weaving there will be bits of white in there.

One of the skeins will be blue and one pink.

To the left of the skeins is some dyed fleece which I decided to do in the same session.
Now the yarn is ready to warp the loom up.

The loom all warped with a shuttle of blue yarn ready.
I will let you know how the weaving is going
