After washing the Clun Forest, I decided to have some fun with it. I have been combing and spinning plain white Cormo non-stop for weeks so I got out all the dyes and used some plastic flower pot thingys to dye a rainbow of wool.

In the steamer the colors looked a little washed out.

After steaming they were all nicely shaded with lots of variations within each color.

I can't wait until this gets dry enough to comb-or card. I'm still not too sure which way to go with it.

I see some fun mitten knitting in my future.
