A new lease of life

Crochet from the 1930's, is given a new lease of life, having been hand dyed in delicious hues of blackcurrant and cranberry.

  1. This is very pretty and a great re-use of things which get overlooked! I love the way the old crochet has taken the pink colour. It's kind of dusky and soft.

    I was saying, it is a really fun way to spend an afternoon, you never quite know what to expect! Hand dying makes me feel like an alchemist, all i am missing is a pointy hat! x
