Kool-Aid Yarn

In other news, it was too overcast today to get any painting done, which is mostly what my in-progress OoaK projects need, so I did something else on my "omg can't take any more typing!" breaks.

I dyed some merino wool yarn with kool-aid. And the results were not too shabby! Here's a pic:



Flavors used included lemon-lime, pink lemonade, black cherry, and some kind of blue raspberry lemonade something. I like the look of the black cherry the best, but the lemon-lime came out the most evenly colored (I used smaller skeins for that one, which probably made the difference).

Anyway, it was fun, I've got yarn and kool-aid left over to keep experimenting with, and I think I'll be able to knit up some really interesting scarves from it. Wheee!
