3 days of Yarn friends and a fabulous time

Welcome to another blog post, I hope you are well and getting lots of crochet time or at least some crochet dreaming time :)
The beginning of March is the Unwind Retreat in Dunedin, New Zealand. I went last year and met so many new people and learnt (and purchased) so much that I couldn't wait for this year. 
Built in the 1860's, the Waines hotel was a beautiful venue for the retreat, with a big room for the market place and sitting area for us all to sit, chat and compare yarn hauls haha

I have made a vlog (see below) and I will put all the links that you need for the items shown in the vlog below

From a very limited number of plant extract and a small bug you can get a rainbow. Results from 3 months work. Because I want these colours to last every dyepot sat around after cooking for at least 24 hours and my mordanted skeins take 3-5 days to mature before rinsing. Not a speedy process. Beauty takes time. #naturaldye #naturaldyeing #plantdye #dyersofinstagram #handdyeing #handdyed
