Dyeing yarn WITH KOOL-AID

Ok, so I soaked it in bleach & rinsed it. Then I re-dyed it with a mixture of orange, cherry, & black cherry Kool-aid. I can use it, only a few muted purple spots remain.




I tried to dye a skein of Cobasi yarn with KOOL-AID and it went all wrong!
It's a poor choice/placement of the colors. In my frustration, I doused the whole skein with purple! This muddied the colors. I should have used a less expensive yarn to experiment on. Oh well, I'm bleaching these colors out & then I'll overdye it.  Stay tuned :)
