Kool-Aid is super fun to dye with, but yes you will get odd, unexpected results sometimes! Over-dyeing solves a lot of problems. I've had to over dye skeins before because they didn't come out how I intended ... at all and once overdyed were actually quite pretty.Delusional Knitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04468359827353813983noreply@blogger.com
