Let's see if we can make pink yarn then. . . Avocado pitts and skins, boiled for an hour yesterday, left overnight and boiled again this morning. About to remove the pitts and skins and add the yarn. #NaturalDyeing #Avocado #Dyeing #DyeingYarn #WoolDyeing

Natural dye project underway. First batch of the day is fermented lichen, but it was left fermenting too long and went past purple to brown (or the type of lichen was mis-identified) . . . #NaturalDye #Dyeing #HandSpinning

Still spinning the mystery fleece. I'd taken a break from spinning for a while because I had so many illnesses and other stresses in recent months. Picked this back up recently. #GuildOfSpinnersWeaversAndDyers #SpinnersOfInstagram #HandSpun

#Beltane breakfast. Flower topped cookies, and elderflower syrup with sparkling water and blackberries. I'll be using the rest of the edible flowers in a salad at lunchtime. #SeasonalEating #MayDay #KitchenWitch

Forgot to put the sugar in and didn't realise until I took the first bite, so grabbed some syrup and that sorted it. Banana oat pancakes with blackberries. Whisked the egg whites separately to the rest of the mixture and folded them in, for a delicious fluffy finish. #Oats #OatPancakes #Pancakes

1/2 I am in the last week in my current job. Members have been bringing me flowers this week. I don't have a lot of vases and I have resorted to pint glasses. There are four other vases/jugs/pint glasses in various other parts ...

Rosemary was developmentally delayed and never quite caught up to her peers in every aspect. Her parents, dad especially, were so embarrassed by this that they would send her off to boarding schools to "reform" her and isolate her from family, friends, and the press.
