My answer to your qu...Hello Vicki K. and Bibliocat! My answer to your question is yes! For sure you can dye the yarn in exactly the same way, as long as it is a protein fibre such as sheeps wool. I recommend something like this:<br />http://www.knitpicks.com/yarns/Bare_Wool_of_the_Andes_Worsted_Yarn__D5420101.html<br />It is a 100% wool, not superwash. I am not sure how a superwash yarn would turn out with Kool Aid as I don't have any experience with this. But I am predicting the colour may not hold as well as the superwash has been treated. Stick with 100% wool for your first experiment and then try others.<br />For techniques on hand dying yarn here is a tutorial from Knitty.com http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEfall02/FEATdyedwool.html<br />Hope you share your results with us!<br />-LadeeBeeLadeeBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11529153284839051271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8455449208653449581.post-69898588378335788902011-05-17T20:42:59.609-04:002011-05-17T20:42:59.609-04:00Wow!
