Now that all this is cleared up I can tell you about these Easter egg dyed Corriedale socks-the last of the ones coming off the needles for a long while. The locks were dyed last Easter with Paas egg dye and I couldn't ask for prettier colors although I recall being very disappointed in them last spring.
These locks to be exact. You can read about all about it here.
I have been avoiding making eye contact with the egg dye displays in the stores because I really don't have anything out in the shed worth dyeing this year. Having wrote that, I am more than sure I will out digging in the fleece shed before the day is out seeing if there is something I may have overlooked because it has become something of a tradition to dye fleece along with the eggs and I am such a creature of habit. Sigh. What I really should be doing instead is finishing this other dang sock.
hmmm....I haven't tried egg dye yet. I will have to give it a try. I love your socks!
