Surprise!

25 grams of fabulous woolly yarn

I didn't expect this at all. There was some of the Acacia Gum dye bath left over from the other day so I popped in 25 grams of my freshly mordanted yarn to exhaust it. The colour didn't look very exciting so I added a small glug of some copper water I made years ago. The dye bath looked disgusting - a dreadful, sludgy brown/black so I wasn't hopeful. It still looked horrible when I brought it out of the pan but after rinsing, washing and rinsing again, I was left with this beautiful colour. I think the green became stronger as it was drying. What a shame I didn't dye more.
