That bright, sunny yellowy-orangey is perfect for today. Thanks for brightening up my day!
Oh, that color is fantastic. ^__^ I can’t wait to see what you’re making with it!
Lovely, Ysolda. And nicely photographed!
My stars, that is a gorgeous color! It’s so bright and happy that you can’t help but smile. Hope it’s as much fun to knit up!
Wow, I would love to knit with that color right now to chase the winter blues away. Can’t wait to see the finished product!
Love the colors, I’m curious to know if the first was taken in natural light?
What pretty yarn!! :)
Wot is it? It looks sockish!
Blue Faced Leicester is my absolute favourite and that colour is just what we need to cheer us all up. Lovely!
Be U tiful color!
You can really tell that it’s dyed naturally – it looks so fresh and wholesome!
Ah, that cheery, sunny yellow is just what we need on a winter’s day! Can’t wait for spring.
A good pattern choice for such a beautiful colour!
I love yellow and I love cables. I must say, those socks are great!
I was very interested in your blog about your grandfather. My inlaws live in the Fort William area, and when I asked, my Father inLaw he remembered a William Stewart he said he thought had moved to the Edinburgh area, and that he also thought he’d taught my husband in Boy’s Brigade…One of my husband’s uncles (his mother’s brother) was also in the mountain rescue, but that may have been more recently than your grandfather. Sadly, because they aren’t very interested in knitting anyway (that’s my, English, domain!) they didn’t remember that…great memories, loved reading them, thanks, Fran
I gasped aloud when this page loaded – what an incredible colour. I feel like licking my monitor right now as the weather hereabouts has been unrelentingly grey for weeks.
I’ve wondered about buying from the natural dye studio before… I find it frustrating that they don’t say *what* dyes are used for each colourway.
