This is the first time I've combined dyeing my own tops with my marle blending technique. It's given me a lovely gradation of colour that reminds me of the way the roses' colours develop with time.

Harmony Wool Tops
Here are the wool tops I dyed in response to the Harmony Day roses:
I've done 1oo g of each. It's a while since I did any spinning straight from my hand-dyed tops, so I think I'll do 50 g of each just as they are. That will leave me 50 g of each to play with. I can mix them in different proportions. Then I'll have four different, but closely related skeins of wool. Sounds like a plan.
