10.21 Dyeing results

It's been annoying, but now I am merely apathetic. I've tried varying the water temp, adding more vinegar, length of time for soaking... Nothing seems to make a difference except just continuing to rinse. Eventually, it rinses clean. Fortunately, I don't seem to be felting it.

I do like the way it's turning out.

Very nice!

Maybe that's the key. When your heart's in it, the yarn has control.

It is DEFINITELY worth the hassle. Lovely yarn!

That is a great color! I agree with beadlizard - it was worth the hassle!

PS - I got the mug off of cafepress.com. Just type in the phrase and you'll find it!

This too shall pass. And the yarn is so lovely that you'll forgive it.
I've had the same trouble with red...

BTW, my verification word is "blendi"...

Well the results are very pretty! You might try leaving it in the dye pot longer next time. When there's no color in the pot you're ready to rinse.
