More New Colors: Blue Peacock

...And another new colorway for the summer! 

This one was the result of a collaboration with a client who wanted one of the other colorways tweaked a bit.   So I tweaked....

...and totally fell in love with the result.   Blue Peacock is one of my new favorite colorways.

In the Studio

I've spent some time this winter in the studio, dyeing up some ribbon.   Since it has to be steamed, it heats the studio a bit and helps keep things humidified.  

Plus, when I'm done, I have all this gorgeous yarn to sell.  If you haven't seen my Etsy yarn shop, then here's the link:  www.robinjedmundson.etsy.com.
