I'm not sure whether I am ready to get messy with colours and fibre yet but I do have a new camera (a tiny Panasonic Lumix DMC-SZ8) and it was the perfect afternoon for tea, chat and some snaps.
Apparently dyers do not usually share their secrets and so I have decided this post will be a lot shorter on words than usual and let the photographs (and my new camera) talk for me.

Some lovely colours there - I especially love the 'spun autumn' yarn.
Fantastic.... really beautiful colours..
Off to dig out my dye buckets.. :-)

Very pretty :)
I've been dyeing in the garden too ... but given that I'm using natural dyes my colours are less vibrant.
