Knits to Dye For

I haven’t seriously considered hand dyeing my own yarn at this point. There are so many beautiful choices from yarn companies already on the market, plus increasing numbers of artisans on Etsy, making great product. However, I saw this piece on Painting Knitted Lace With Dye on the new Twist Collective and was intrigued at the idea of dyeing finished knitted objects. Want to dye yarn yourself? Check out this Knitty article by Kristi Porter, and Fig & Plum has a good reference list. Also, go see some amazing fiber arts at the Fiber Arts Friday Carnival and follow the links.
