Addiction confirmed

This is what I did yesterday...

Yeah, it's Easter egg dyeing for a crafty soul...
and this is what I'm going to be working with today...

I can't wait until I can get to do it again - I am officially addicted to dyeing my own yarn!

    1. I'm going to make a bag with it. I'm leaning towards felting it since it's 100% wool - I'd rather felt it on purpose then have it happen accidentally later... lol.

    1. I was surprised too since the Kool-Aid had muted so much after drying. I thought that these would tone down too but they didn't. I kind of love how obnoxiously bright they are though.

  6. Lovely colors. Take a tip from me and knit a small swatch and wash it just to MAKE SURE it's color fast -- one of my dye lots was not and I am still feeling blue about the blue turning my yellow green today!

    1. That's a good tip - it's a little too late, as I've gotten halfway through the skein already making a new bag but I'm going to felt it so if it runs, I'll be expecting it now. Thanks though - I'll definitely use it for future projects.
