Yarn hanging on a clothesline in the sunshine. The background is a wall of bricks and a very sandy ground below

Another angle of the same yarn on the clothesline This time the focus is on the lightest caramel colour with the progression to the darkest brown out of focus in the distance. The bright blue sky is visible at the top left, a cream metal fence, and the sandy ground below

The reverse angle of the same yarn on the clothesline This time the focus is on the darkest brown with the progression to the out of focus lightest caramel colour in the distance. The bright blue sky is visible at the top right, a cream metal fence, and the weedy sandy ground below

The yarn stacked in metal trays in a silver metal trolly before it was hung out to dry. The backgound is mainly the creamy coloured tiles on the floor

The last 8 colours of Winter Whispers: Australian Snowy Mountains kits are drying out in the warm autumn sun and breezes so hopefully I can twist them up and look at the full 24 colours already dried. 🧶

A stainless steel tray with yarn that has been covered in bright pink dyes with various speckles. The purple speckles stand out the most

The next dye colour in the progression. It has bright pink at the top with purples at the bottom of the tray. There are more purple speckles over the yarn

The next colour in the series with the yarn now almost completely covered in purples with just a tiny bit of hot pinks at the very top of the tray.

Some intense colours from the Flower Markey kit before the dye is set in the oven 💜💓 the colours always look extra bright at this stage 🧶

The beginning of a shawl and the yarn laying on a white background. The reddish pink start has a beam of bright yellow already knit and the first part if the green skein has started. The minis laying next to the knitting are arranged in the order to be knit. The pattern will then mirror the order as the shawl grows

A closer look at the begging of the shawl and minis to be added It is a simple garter stitch with icord edges. The yellow beam and pink explosion colour are highly contrasting. A single row of the green mini has been added.

A close up if the Pink Explosion 5 colour as it began its “birth” as a shawl There are subtle changes of colour seen within the knitted fabric

Ive started testing @ambahobrien.bsky.social ‘s #aurorahuntershawl using my Carrington Event kit

Well I miscalculated my mohair usage so I am back using the creamier mohair for the rest… if i run out Ill have a think about which colour to use next. When i knit the #jollyjumper i used more of the pink mohair in the waistband, collar and cuffs.
