January 2011 - Chinese New Year


This is Fireflowers, my contribution to the Phat Fiber box this month.
I wanted to recreate fireworks, so I tried my hand at dyeing wool, Firestar and making batts.
The yarn and the fibers are all dyed with the same colors at different depths of shade (DOS). The blue on the yarn is much more intense.
The batts are BFL layered with different colors of Firestar. The yarn is a new base which is still 75% superwash wool and 25% merino. I'm calling this base Valhalla.
During this next week I'll dye more of both and get them listed in the shops.
