Notes

Vacation project: Dyed double stranded Knit Picks sockblank with “Giesey Family Vacation - 2015” using Cherry, Strawberry, and Grape Kool-aid. For each color: Added 2 envelopes to a small amount of very hot water and then applied to blank with squirt bottle.

Wrapped in aluminum foil and put in the sun for the day.

Seems to be reasonably color-fast (trace amount of color when rinsed). It smells like fruit… wonder how long that will last :D

Didn’t get picture of dyed blank before unravelling for yarn (impatience) but scarf/shawlette is looking really good! Increased until ran out of 1st ball - then reversing and decreasing to finish… love knitting side-to-side.
