Dyed in the wool
Remember the pound of undyed mill end roving (unknown wool but not superwash) in a natural color? Here is a "before" picture to jog the memory. I dyed almost half of it and here are some of the results below!
Top to bottom: tropical punch kool-aid, orange kool-aid, lemonade kool-aid, juniper green wilton's icing gel, delphinium blue wilton's icing gel. The green and blue are by far my favorite. I love the effect when the dyes split and you get a depth of color. I like wilton's better than kool-aid for dying. Now I'm wondering what they look like spun up...
