facing into the sun
not the best way to get a good shot
moving the cupboard was not an option though...
top row is actually orange and reds
this is most of the wool I've dyed in 2017
missing are about two more shelves full that didn't fit
these will mix wonderfully with my other stash
no excuse not to hook now
thinking I'm pretty much done selling wool
I'm glad I dyed it
sold enough to make it worth my while
just felt much more like work
than work ever does
other items like homespun, dye books with swatches,
a hook or two
even some hooked rugs
are in the works
just not wool
*****
with all this dyeing I really used up a good amount
of my dye stash
one of my main objectives
for now all the dye supplies are stored away
if I feel the need to dye something
I'll just have to marry some wools
***
am going to be doing a little
hook-a-long next month
if you'd like to join in
will post here and on FB
the plan is a winter theme
still tossing ideas around in my head

A hook-along sounds like fun if I can find the time to do it. Crazy busy getting ready for the upcoming shows where I am vending but I'm not complaining (much)...lol!
Beautiful wool.
Your wools look awesome, kelley,,,
Looking forward to a hook a long,,,
Ur designs are fun,,,
Thanks,,,
Agree with you that dyeing can feel a bit like work, especially for you since you did marathon dyeing. But now you have a wonderful collection from which to choose. Although I've 3 rugs started already am interested in doing the hook-along too.
Gorgeous, Kelley!!! I've got the book, I've got yucky wool, now I've just got to get the motivation to dye!! Your colors are gorgeous...so soft, so old looking. Glad you're back to hooking and designing!!
yummy wools ~ and yes! to the hook a long! please post about it on the OOHRHG page too ;)

Your wool stash makes me drool.
Swooning over your stash!
It's funny about what used to make a person ecstatic at one time, now feels like a burden? I know how you feel...and have sold off most of my hobby supplies too. Although I continue to enjoy hooking!!! And most likely always will! :-) Looking forward to your hook along!
P.S. Melrose looks handsome even when he pouts... ;-)
