During a walk through the
Boerner Botanical Gardens I came upon these pretty little flowers called Lantana "Landmark Citrus" in bright yellow, orange, and pink. Great combination for a batch of hand dyed thread, don't you think?
I also liked the light yellow greens in this Hosta plant. I think I need a batch of greens like that, paler and more to the yellow side than my previous batches of "Celery" green.
I finished tatting another Renulek snowflake (please see
Renulek's Etsy Shop for her patterns) in an early sample of my own "Summit" hand dyed combined with a pale blue.
(Summit sold out very quickly but it will return.☺)
These snowflakes are all from
Renulek patterns.
As a break from tatting, I crocheted a bracelet from a pattern by Natalia Kononova. Her patterns are for sale at
OutstandingCrochet.com and also on Ravelry. The crochet thread is 3 ply linen (comparable to a size 10 cotton) which I purchased from
YarnStories on Etsy.
The colors of my favorite baseball team and I'll wear it to the game!
Oh my, those flowers are amazing! They are a great inspiration for a new dyed thread. I love the summit one and I can see why it sold out so quickly :)
