Katie's mystery silk Indio!

Katie sent me an Indio. It had a very patchy dye job as you can see below.  I stripped it which got rid of the majority of patches apart from a section at one tail.  We agreed on magenta and a purple acid dye.  I gave it two dips as after the first one the patch was still shining through a lot.  It's now barely noticeable.  The colour is very hard to capture.  In real life it is a deep magenta with a purplish coloured weft.

After. Like I said, very hard to photograph. It's much deeper magenta in real life, with a subtle purplish shade weft thread.

It's all about shorties....

I love shorties. I REALLY LOVE SHORTIES. 2's and 3's are so handy, and when wrapped correctly can be every bit as comfy and supportive as a double hammock for example.  Here are some videos I did of my fave carries using a 2/3. :-*

Penny's nati dandelions part 2!

Penny originally asked for a tealy dye with navy acid dye. The first dip went a bit wrong, the entire wrap was super patchy, still unsure as to what caused it as I used the exact same method as I have done multiple times before. :/ anyway, stripped it and mixed up a jade/teal colour which means the patchiness is barely noticeable when wrapped, but actually has quite a nice effect in my opinion.  The first photo has the most accurate colour.

Two diorites!

One turquoise, one red :)

Vici's JKCC

Vici sent me her Oscha JKCC, asking for pink. I suggested after their pink bath that a purple acid dye might be nice for some contrast. She was chuffed with the result and requested action shots.
