This is just a short post to share the final result of my avocado stones dyeing experiment.

Here they are – I am very very pleased.

I have some plans for this yarn that is baby alpaca, silk and linen. It will almost inevitably be a shawl or wrap – probably a wrap and most likely an asymmetrical one.

We had another result here in the UK overnight. The General Election has returned a majority government for the Conservatives under Boris Johnson. I am not surprised but did hold out some hope that sensible caring policies would win over bluster and popular rhetoric. I was very wrong. There are lots of angry posts around the internet at the moment but this is simply tilting at windmills. The result is final and those of us who care about social policies need to move on and find ways to support vulnerable people, the environment and be a force for change.
