Dabble in Dyeing

I bought some books on dyeing with natural dyes and I am going to play today!!! I have dyed with acid dyes before and I often get a headache, so I am going to give the natural stuff a try!This is Cochineal soaked overnight! Cochineal is a bug! Yuck! It makes red though and from what I am told red is really difficult to get otherwise.




Don't forget to enter the Stop Light Challenge. Read yesterdays post for the info!!!

Happy Knitting, Trish
