Last week I took over the kitchen and made it into my dyeing lab. And I successfully made brown out of different fruity flavors of Kool-Aid, which is more complicated than you might think. I mixed Kool-Aid and tested on small amounts of yarn. From left to right there is the squirrel body color, then the squirrel tail color, then beaver color (I used black for the tail), and finally, fox (I used some of the white, un-dyed yarn for the end of the tail and the face). As much as I'm sure I could bore you with the detailed descriptions of the color mixing, and as much as I would enjoy that, sadly, I can't remember how I mixed the colors. This might make my next dying experiment a little difficult. I guess I will have to turn the kitchen into my lab again.
That's it, just a short one today. By the way, I still demand everyone go look at the Crafty Alien site.

Well, you're just a dyeing maniac! I yielded to your demands and went to the website. I like the hedgehog and the swat team kitties.
I just realized the title says dying instead of dyeing. I should really change that.
