Dye job #3

Last night I wound the last of the dyed skeins (#2 is for my dye-o-rama pal. So sorry no pics yet.) and it only took half an hour! I figured out that when I wind the yarn on the warping board, it somehow gets twisted. Placing the dyed skein ends around chair backs seems to remedy the knot issue. I think I will take it straight to the winder tonight. I wish I was quick enough on my feet to come up with names for my dyed yarns. What to name this? Rainforest? Seahawk? Happy Day? Who knows? All I know is that I cannot wait to use it.

In other dye job news, I am getting my hair done next Tuesday! Darker or lighter-I cannot decide but the greys seem to be multiplying.

Oh- I found my mom a mother's day present. 2 sets of stemless wine glasses. Perfect since they just came back from Napa with lots of wine.
