Hello?
It's a bit quiet in here today.
I've been at the dye pot again. I now have a nice wad of Teal alpaca:

Yes, it is that vibrant - I love jewel tones.
I'm very tempted to do some silk in the same colour and mix the two -
hmmm.
It's Saturday night for me here so I guess it's Friday night/Saturday
morning for many of you - have a good weekend!

That's a beautiful color. I look forward to seeing the results if you use
the same dye on silk.

Nah, just being truthful (laugh). The colour is beautiful. If you do add
