This is the one I promised earlier. This picture actually turned out pretty true colorwise on my monitor. This is the experiment in rit dying that I tried. I like the color variations, but it could be better.

Last, but not least, is a double strand of the valley cotton that I got. I think this will be made into a tank. Again, the color is fairly true on my monitor:
That's it for tonight.
The first link is broken! Also, I still don't see why ribbing in particular with variegated yarn is bad. I blame the type of variegation over the ribbing. I like much shorter bursts of color as a ratio to yarn thickness.
