Glow-Up Irida

 Glow-Up Irida

Oh what a wonderful result after less than stellar results with some of my other skeins from the April dye batch. This is a 2 color gradient using pale lilac and teal, the doily is rather small so I figured I wouldn't be able to make more than 2 colors work for it, but it's such a cute little pattern that works up so quick I can't resist making its own special dyed skein, plus how often do you get to make a septuple tr stitch in a pattern, wow that's fun!


How it started - the color pallet sketch

The wash out

The wind up

And the results, ain't she pretty?

Love this pattern and the designer, she was the first designer that let me test her patterns for her to translate into English, they have all been lovely and she continues to create and sell beautiful designs on Ravelry and Instagram. Check her out!
