Van Gogh #6 for us ~ Red Vineyard in Arles

Red Vineyard in Arles!
I like so many of this series, it would be hard pressed to say which is my all time favourite.  I will be posting "Starry Night" tomorrow after I get them kitchenered.  And then there is no more pair of the series of 8 to do.  The last pair is called, "The Bridge"

Of the ones done which is now 7 out of 8, if I had to pick 4 out of the 7 already completed that I would say I like the best they would be: The Sunflowers, Gauguins Chair, The Restaurant and now, Red Vineyard in Arles!

Ok this has given me an idea!!!  I will be back.

Funky One of A KInd, Picking Blackberries!

Picking Blackberries as I call them....my hand dyed made into socks.
All th yarn I dyed yesterday.
They are pretty funky and definintely One of a Kind for me!  I added a splash of green in at the last and I guess I shouldn't have done that as one sock is more green that other one, it doesn't bother me but it probably would not suit someone else.  I still have lots to learn when dyeing but I did learn lots yesterday that is for sure!  I don't have someone to teach me so I still have to learn.  I learn from doing things and sometimes by doing things wrong also.  I will choose to wear this pair cuff up showing off my nice bright blue stripes or cuff down orange!  And can always say the Blackberries were riper for one sock than the other!  Hahaha  I will have happy wearing no matter what!  I would like to wear to a market to see if anyone actually comments on them.  I can tell them that I was practicing my hand dyeing and this is what I came up with ....total yarn for these socks I hand painted with koolaid except the blue was food colouring!  What a creation they are!  Thanks MrB for cranking them up for me, and after supper I will have to get them kitchenered, washed, hung to dry and put away in my drawer to wear sometime soon!
