Here are the towels I dyed today with indigo. They started as plain white. They're still wet in this picture so they may dry a bit lighter.

Cat Lady Box this month came with a box-sized scratch pad so I put some catnip in it and now Monkey doesn't want to leave.

He fell asleep on my husband's lap. (Sorry for bad lighting, my house is pretty dark and I took this from across the room.)

I gave Monkey his fluids for the first time tonight and it went well. He didn't fight it and I didn't poke myself with the needle or get liquid everywhere. It's been an hour and he's doing fine. But he didn't want his photo taken.

I still had dye left in my trash can indigo vat so I dyed a kilogram of wool yarn. I had to add more reducing agent and when you put protein fibers in high pH, you can add hide glue to protect, but I tried regular gelatin instead (should be same and less stinky and also cheaper).

My dog is really into this toy lately and she doesn't care what she tugs on. She dragged that chair halfway across the room.

Wishful thinking, Mohair and More. You have not experienced the new "improved" USPS processing center in Palmetto, GA (that effed up so much there were SENATE HEARINGS). But I knew that before ordering and can wait.

These companies are mocking me. Here is ANOTHER one I got, this time from Lima Beads:
Sneaky Burrito @sneakyburritoI just got this in a promotional email and I am tempted even though I haven't done much beading lately. I love coin-shaped gemstone beads for reasons I don't entirely understand.10:26 AM - Apr 25, 2024

I love Amazon pricing oddities. You can get 3 of these for $199.99 or 4 of them for $54.89. OK?
(Also I did not know you could buy gas cylinders on Amazon but I guess you learn something every day.)

I am a sucker for anything sparkly and just look at these handmade watercolors I found on Etsy (kinda $$$ but gorgeous).
Here is the shop:

I don't drink so the only #liquor in my house is this Everclear I use for dye extraction.

Here's mine. Yes I need to dust. Perhaps I will need to find that pool noodle as again. 😂

She won't come up the stairs (or down) no matter what. Actually makes things much easier around here.

Indigo dyeing in the garage. Here's my vat and my drying rack. I put a tarp on the floor to hopefully contain some of the drips.

I have this idea for a project and rather than buying pre-dyed fabric I thought I would dye it myself. So I needed a BIG indigo vat for this stage. This is a 55 gallon trash can I got at Home Depot (I also bought wheels for it).

Today I learned something new from an ad. A refrigerated container is also sometimes called a "reefer" container. Because I looked at the image and thought, wow, that is a lot of marijuana.
