I'm a little late on the ice dyeing craze, but I finally made time to try it. I read about snow dyeing several years ago and thought it sounded interesting, although not very practical for someone who lives in a warm climate. Ice dyeing makes more sense, and summer is actually a good time, because the mess can stay outside. After doing an internet search, I realize there are many variations. I chose to work with the dyes in their powdered state rather than mixing them into a liquid. I placed a tarp on the ground outside and used a plastic grid from a commercial light fixture to raise the fabric out of the melting ice/dye. I am pleased with the results, although I have to admit that while it was in process I was not impressed. I had read some comments that the results are similar to what you get with low water immersion dyeing. I found a significant difference. The patterning is hard to describe, but it has a distinctive look. Here are my results (I used Dharma Bronze and ProChem Tobacco on all these pieces): This is a piece of silk dobby noil (from Thai Silks). It is a wonderful fabric and it took the ice dyeing beautifully. This is a heavy-weight cotton. This is silk habotai, and it was underneath the two previous fabrics to catch the dye as it dripped down. This looks like a typical low water immersion dye. This is also cotton, and it was dry when I placed the ice cubes on top. The other fabrics were all wet. This piece was underneath the plastic grid to catch the drips from the previous cloth. Have you tried ice and snow dyeing? What was your experience?

Sweet and simple and super-swingy… The idea was to give that gauzy, “tutu” feel while keeping this top modern and practical. The result is not too frilly but definitely girly! ~~~ This top is knit seamlessly from the top down. First it is worked flat with an I-cord edging, then it is worked in the round.

Here’s one that I think every little man AND every little lady should have :) Shawl collars are always nice and cozy under a coat -- especially for children who, like mine, adamantly reject scarves… Designed to be relatively close-fitting, this sweater won’t add bulk under a jacket.

First it is worked flat, then stitches for the neck placket are cast on and the sweater is then worked in the round. Stitches are picked up around the neckline to work the shawl collar, which is knit flat using short rows. The bottom edges of the collar are sewn onto the body. The sleeves are worked in the round. Skills required: long-tail cast on, knitting, purling, increasing, decreasing, knitting in the round, picking up stitches, working short rows (explanations provided,) twisted stitches (i.e., ktbl and ptbl: link to video tutorial provided). ~~~ To fit chest: 16 (17, 18, 19 // 21, 23, 25, 26.5) inches or 40.5 (43, 46, 48 // 53.5, 58.5, 63.5, 67.5) cm.
