I am sorry to have been so quiet over the last week - it has just been a tad busy around the dyeshed.

I have been dyeing up a storm with the new yarn bases in preparation for shows which begin in April.  I've been updating the shop all week with bits and pieces, and it has been disappearing quickly too.  But here's a wee taster of what has gone into the shop this week:

Some Assynt Jewels Silk:



as well as garment quantities of Na Dannsairean Double Knitting:



The Na Dannsairean is available in 4 shades at the moment, but if there is a particular colour you would like get in touch.

Then towards the end of the week I had a visitor to the dyeshed who'd come all the way from the Netherlands to see me.  Well, not really!  She happened to be holidaying not too far away and popped in to see us.  It was good to have a long chat and compare notes on dyeing and knitting.

We were fortunate enough to have a lovely day for her visit, although it was a little on the chilly side.  It was lovely to spend time chatting to a fellow enthusiast.

As you can see, as usual I dressed for the occasion!
