Adventures in Dyeing is the most thorough explanation of how to dye self-striping yarn I have read to date. It’s really “mathy” though, so I will have to go back and study it on a day when I have actually had some sleep. Not today, in other words.

I’ve been wanting to try my hand at creating self-striping yarn since the yarn dying bug bit me, but all the other explanations seem more magical than logical. In other words, I didn’t understand them well enough to implement them. This one, while scary due to my math phobia, explains it very well. I can’t wait to order some plain wool sock yarn to make my own stripy socks with! Oh, it sounds like too much fun!
