Thanks to all those who made a purchase in my Etsy shop!
From those that purchased, I pulled Jory from Duluth, MN as the winner.
I will be sending her out a half yard of a lovely green I dyed recently.

Three Times a Charm Dye Book

My third dye book is back from the printer's and ready to go public!


Three Times a Charm is the third in a series of dye books I've developed over the past few years. It consists of 56 formulas using the following methods of dyeing: abrash, double abrash, triple abrash, and lastly transcolor dyeing. These are some of my favorite methods and formulas. Instructions are detailed, and I think, easy to follow. Basic dye equipment is used. Most of my formulas use ProChem dyes, and some use Cushing dyes.

These dye methods are a step above simple overdyeing, but I think that even if you are new to dyeing you can obtain great results trying these more advanced methods.

The dye book is available for $11.00 plus $2.65 s/h in the U.S ($3.50 to ship to Canada). I've placed a paypal button to the right of my blog entries for U.S. purchases if you wish to purchase this booklet through my blog site. If you need booklet to ship to Canada, contact me at mictype@nycap.rr.com

Had a great time at the Southern Adirondack Fiber Festival last weekend. Finally got to meet Sarah at Paisley Rug Hooking. Her booth was the only one related to hooking, and was beautifully set up.
