I’ve been on a big gradient kick lately, so I went looking for sunset pictures for our May Fiber and Sock Yarn Club. This one won:
So I did quite a bit of sampling and came up with gradient of gold to mauve to greyed purple to blue purple to deep purple. (Yes, 5 different colors. Simple is not in my schema, apparently.)
The yarn this month is Bengal Twist, a tightly twisted BFL sock yarn that takes color beautifully, and is a nice thin weight that is also suitable for shawls. (Which is what mine plans to be, join us on Ravelry for discussion.)
The fiber this month is a beautiful blend of BFL wool and Tussah Silk. It makes the fiber just glow. Due to the silk content, shipments were 3 or 6 oz. I really love this stuff, so look forward to new gradients on it in the shop in the future.
I’m looking ahead to June and a new twist on a fiber that was new last year. New this month, I will be posting any extra fibers at the bottom of the Club page. Also, a heads up….Tiger Club is going to close for the month of July, due to some travels we have planned I need to dye July’s club in June before we go. So if you have been on the fence, get in before June 15 to enjoy the summer Tiger Club installments!
