so i have to say, the dyeing, is loads of fun. it's a little like cooking without having to watch the pan. (i'm not a fan of watching the pan.) or spending time in the lab and having the experiment work. and i can see myself becoming a bit addicted to the process. this wasn't my first dyeing experiment. i've done some kool-aid dyeing in a crockpot and in the microwave. and at last year's fiber revival i took a class in dyeing using just three primary colors, yellow, red and blue. but this was my first time working with acid dyes on my own.
and i'm hooked.
look what happened using only red, yellow and blue!!!
in fact, i was so excited that i had to wind the yarn into a cake right away.
of course i'm going to have to order more dye colors. i'll take one of each please!
