Make n’ Tell Challenge: Day 2

Today I dyed yarn for a swap on Ravelry. The request was for pink, which is way outside my normal color range. I used Wilton food coloring in pink and rose, and kool aid pink lemonade. I'm not thrilled with the results, but it is pink. I was hoping for a bit more variation in color. The pictures were taken right after the rinse, so we'll see what it looks like dry and reskeined in a day or two.



I like the results from my last session better.



I made it to JoAnn's today & found some rings to try out the buttons, now I just need to dig out the embroidery floss.

  1. I actually love this shade of pink! And I would never have thought of using food coloring and Kool Aid. Very cool!
