CVM Fiber Prep (2018 stash)

Specifications
Notes

Started carding some washed CVM from stash. It was very sticky. Decided to dye some of it so I did one batch with some old sapphire blue dye and one with teal dye in the crockpot. The batts I finished carding will also be dyed and I’m planning to use some dish soap in the dye water and remove them while the water is still hot in order to help remove some of the sticky lanolin but still preserve the carding work I’ve already done.
We’ll have to see how that goes. The two batches that I dyed and washed/rinsed feel much better.

Have a full box of carded batts and have been dyeing a little each day to add to the fleece available to card.
