Houston, we have pics!

I'm sorry...was that confusing?  You were expecting to see the pics?Understandable.  All I did was the first wee steps of actually remembering to find the camera and take them in the first place...document a little piece of process.  Now actually getting them on the big computer and learning how to post them, that's another few wee steps.  Using the big computer actually feels bigger than a wee step.  I have considerable resistance to using it, especially for anything visually oriented, because 1) it never quite seems in focus, which makes my eyes and head hurt and 2) at some point the color mysteriously became ultra saturated, which makes my eyes, head, and psyche hurt.  AND neither of these respond at all to anything I do with the monitor settings.  Even Joe can't fix it.  I suspect a visually impaired poltergeist.

This process I documented was dyeing roving, actually. Thanks ever so much to rexenne and BlondeChickenYarn for their YouTube videos that nudged me into just do it mode.  The roving is for practicing color blending with carding combs (snap! forgot to take pics of that part), so all the tedious aspects of dyeing (consistency of color, repeatability, etc) were moot points.  Yay!  Free play!  So now I have a nice box full of rainbow-hued tufts made from just sun yellow, sky blue and vermilion rovings.  Or we could go art school and say I have completed a carding technique color study.  Either way, can't wait to spin it! (pssst! Did you catch the other wee step? Adding links!)

And yes, there will be pics...eventually.

BTW, we are now using "snap" as our expletive of choice since the STP has added "cwap" and "tupit" to his repertoire, which is so incredibly cute that it's well nigh impossible to keep a straight face.
