Or yellow yarn. That matches the Arizona sunshine and the yellow grapefruits hanging ripe and lush on the tree.
Honestly, I don't even like yellow usually!! I just happen to have a ton of yellow yarn from all my natural dyeing (this is sock yarn that I dyed with goldenrod back when I was living in Vermont, four and a half years ago).
I was in a mood recently when I suddenly needed a blast of its energy. So I put it on the swift (which is also homemade, and which also dates back to those Vermont days).
And wound it into a sunny orb of a ball.
Knitting to come ...
Oh it's beautiful! It's just glowing.
ReplyDeleteIt's a very pretty yellow. Rich but not gold, bright but not glowy/neon, soft but not pale. I can imagine it worked up into something beautiful. Can't wait to see what you create with it. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed sunshiney. Lovely pictures, too!
ReplyDeleteThat is a happy color! It reminds me of Cat Bordhi's Lemon Leaves socks (probably 'cause the socks are done in yellow in her book).
ReplyDeleteT'will be most interesting to see what you have in mind for this sunny ball o'yarn.
I love that color...it matches the VW Beetle that I drive! Eager to see what you create with it.
