Experiments in dyeing wool.


It's been quite a challenge to find colors of yarns that are really different yet appealing. With this in mind, my daughter Shelley and I decided to try dying some on our own. I started out with Kool aid dyes which work well but have limited colors. I then purchased some Ashford dyes and Shelley came over to help out; she has a great eye for color. The following pic is some of what we came up with in Briggs and Little 1 ply durasport which started out as white.
