The Walnuts are falling

Watch out! It’s no joke when those Black Walnuts hit the ground in fall. I’m not always toting something for picking them up either, so in the picture - that is my shirt that held quite a few as you can see. It’s basically a Fall easter egg hunt, and you might miss some because they are green! Last year, I did a dry run of a super small batch of 8/2 weaving yarns dyed in black walnut that I am using currently in one of my designs. This year, I have dyed a larger batch of that same yarn in addition to gorgeous Alpaca where I ended up with a gorgeous brown. I will create a photo gallery here soon to show more of the process, including the design that I have incorporated some of the 8/2 weaving yarn into already. Stay tuned for More on the Black Walnut Dye.
