Have you ever tried spinning painted top or roving only to be disappointed with the color outcomes in your yarns or finished projects? This book will clearly and artfully walk you through understanding color theory making it less intimidating for both novice and expert spinners alike.

Never before has a book presented the same dyed top worked up into 20+ different approaches accompanied by easy to follow directions so you can see how the techniques look in both a skein and a knitted swatch. Plus there are photos of finished products accompanying the techniques to make envisioning the spinning application even easier.

After reading this book you will be inspired to delve into your stash with a new eye and excitement for color in your spinning.

"Your book is beautiful and has so many great and well illustrated ideas, I had a blast reading it!" - Jillian Moreno

I have spent 90% of the the last 10 years focused on raw fleece and undyed processed wool. I haven't spent a lot of time thinking about hand painted fibers. When I sat down with this book I suddenly had a desire to start playing with some of those painted beauties I have been collecting for years and then just admiring on the shelf. - Beth Smith

There are also video reviews from Felicia Lo of Sweet Georgia Yarns & Melissa of Knitting The Stash Podcast on their websites!
