Vi este xaile em alguns blogs pareceu-me ser o modelo ideal para esta lã Merino Land Rosários4 que tingi com corantes alimentares.
I have come across this shawl in a few blogs and it seemed like the perfect pattern for this Rosários4 Merino Land yarn I had dyed with food colorings.
Adoro as cores! E o detalhe do ponto também!
(parece muito mais complicado do que realmente é)
I love these colors! And the stitch detail too! (It looks much more complex than it really is)
É o xaile perfeito para a Primavera, leve e arejado, e combina tão bem com um par de jeans usados!
This is a perfect Spring Shawl, light and airy, and it goes so well with a pair of old jeans!
Mas acho que fica igualmente bem usado como lenço no Inverno, tem o tamanho certo para se enrolar à volta do pescoço.
But I think it will also look great as a scarf in Winter, it has about the right size to wrap around your neck.
Beautiful shawl and colours!!!

Lovely shawl!! I have never dyed any yarn or fabric. How do you do it? Is it colorfast? Pls share the details/tutorials.
ResponderEliminarI have used powdered food dye, but I have read that liquid food dye works as well. Firstly I have soaked the skeins in lukewarm water with vinegar and salt for about half an hour. Then I have used that water with vinegar and salt to prepare the colors. With a plastic spoon I have painted the skeins with the food dye and then wrapped them in saran wrap and microwaved for about 2 minutes, let them rest for 2 minutes, and microwaved again for 2 minutes more. Let the skeins cool down for about half an hour and rinsed with water and wool washer. That's it, it's quite easy.
EliminarLovely! The yarn is beautiful!
ResponderEliminarOh yes, this shawl is also on my to-do-list ;-). You've chosen nice colors, it looks great!!
