I'm teaching English to mostly senior high students. I like traveling, and especially I love New York. Among other hobbies of mine are knitting and making knitting yarn with a spindle. I also like playing the piano, and sometimes join the blues sessions. Suddenly I hit upon this idea of keeping a dairy in English. I wish I could continue this blog as long as possible. If you are interested, why don't you come to my page ?

The Color of Onion
Exactly, the skin of onion can produce a nice color.
That's my favorite.
On the weekind, I enjoyed dying raw wool/silk and silk yarn.
First, I boil the dried onion skin in boilng water.
Second, dip the material in the strained liquid.
Then, by way of mordanting and washing, I dry it.
Don't you think that's successful ?

Dear J-Yoshiko:
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's clear yellow and sometimes close to
mastard. I love it.

The smell, which filles my kitchen,
is terrible, far from that of onion itself. www
