Drying alpaca skeins



 Rain, rain and more rain. So in desperation as these skeins just stayed wet I lit up our ancient stove which hides in the corner of the kitchen. It produced a surprising amount of heat and the skeins began to steam and dry nicely.
This is the first batch and there were 2 more rack loads to go. Then off to be reskeined and once I can get outside to photograph our new colourways I'll post them here.
Meanwhile a little crochet going on. The colour definitely doesn't reflect our grey rain laden skies.
Will post what it is soon.......
