Saturday I wound and unwound a bunch of yarn.  Some might call it prep work, but I think I’m really avoiding actually DOING anything.

Yesterday my dye order from Earth Guild arrived so I spent several hours mixing dyestocks.

I love how they look all lined up on the dining room table.  So much color.  So much potential for disaster.

Tonight I’m getting my hands dirty.

Thanks to everyone who has participated in my contest!  I’ve had a great time and a bunch of laughs reading your comments!  If you haven’t played yet, stop procrastinating! 

In other words, do as I say and not as I do.  Doh!
