dyeing for new socks
I whipped up a blank on the machine
and dyed it orange and green.
The colours weren’t very strong once they’d dried, so I overdyed them with darker versions.
The idea is that one sock goes from orange to green and the other goes from green to orange; we’ll see how it works out!
You’ll have to show us how they turn out!
The old is made new again!

That is very creative.
Lovely color combination – but I don’t understand how you did it, because the first pics are with fabric? And the last one is the yarn?
I knit the yarn into a rectangle (called a blank) on my knitting machine. Paint the blank with dye and then unravel it back to balls of yarn.
What an excellent idea !

Wow, this is amazing! Very creative. Nice way to use and reuse and recycle. Love the vibrant colors., especially that second green, the way it went from a shade of olive to a very distinct green. Nicely done, found you on ABC Wednesday! Amy
I like the colors, Someone is going to be very happy wearing your handknitted socks. Lucky person.
