This is not a comment on your beautiful colors – and they are gorgeous – it’s a response to the tweet along side your blog about photographing stillborns. If it weren’t for your mention of that NPR piece, I would not have known about it.
I listened to it with wonder and tears. I had a stillborn girl 45 years ago, and the grief never does go away. The traditional wisdom at the time was not to let the mother see the dead baby, but I insisted. Without that so brief glimpse I don’t what my life would have been like. I miss her. I wish there had been photographs.
You’re killing me! I promised myself I wouldn’t buy any more yarn for a good long time, and then you go and do THIS! It’s all too beautiful! Susan, I may have to tell D that I won a bunch of yarn…

So purdy!!
I was wondering how you would get the New Year’s dyeing dry with all the crazy wind this past weekend! Glad it worked out, the colors look amazing.
I love the blue and green yarn!
All I gotta say is “O.M.G.”
wowzer!

Beeaaauuutifuuuul yarn.
I love the new colors, especially the purple & pinks.
Hmmmm….looks like Suzy’s been at the farm!
Loverly, so pretty. I’d love a sweater out of, well, several of those colors. Not all in the same sweater.

I’m so excited that you like it! You picked my very favorite colorway too. Miss you and the kids…
Absolutely beautiful – both the yarn and the presentation in the top photo.
Hard to go on a fiber diet with such beautiful yarn.
Oh my! That green is amazing!
I see a Baby Surprise Jacket in that pink, for a little girl named Maddie Rose… (8 weeks old come Friday…)
