natural dyeing

these are the three skeins of yarn i dyed in logwood yesterday. i'm pleased with the color. the silk scarves i did several weeks ago came out too dark (too much logwood extract in the dye bath), but i added just the right amount for what i what i envisioned this time (1 and 1/2 teaspoons in the enamel pot). 

the yarn in the pot last night . .
