Big Red

Tina red wound
This is what was cooking in Big Tina the other day.
I couldn’t find a nice rich red in a yarn soft enough for my purposes, so I dyed up my own.
One hank Aslan Trends “Invernal.” 50% angora, 25% wool, 25% polyamide.
The actual hank is a little darker than it appears here, but this is close enough.
I’m really liking this “twice dyed” technique I’m working out.

1950 Ekco

Picked up a couple of things at the Sleepy Poet Antique Mall on Saturday, including the Oct 1950 Gourmet magazine.
Ah, vintage ads, how I love you.
