Tri-Colored Yarn
12 March 2004 – 9:06 am
See what has happened to my yarn? Can you see the stripes? That is the same dye lot (not the cream part). Maybe I got the skeins that were dyed last in that lot. And the brown color was running out so it became a pinkish color. Even within one skein, it is mostly green, somewhere in the middle for a few yards it goes back to how it should be (an even blend of greens and browns) then goes back to mostly green with a pinkish tone. It’s very weird. Maybe that’s what I get for buying a slighty inferior yarn? It’s Lion Brand Homespun. All my skeins are the same dye-lot and the big color difference is also within the same strand of yarn! So even though I made sure I got the same dye lot, it didn’t make any difference in this project. I guess it really wants to be multi-colored.
