Follow on this make along, while I mix food coloring colors randomly, showing you all the steps along the way. It is an easy way to get into yarn dyeing , and it works amazingly on wool!

    Finally someone that swatches the final sceins! Thank you! I always wonder how it will work up in knitting or crochet. You really made my day!

    I agree that seeing the yarn swatched up adds something nice, I enjoy seeing how the colors develop on fabric. These turned out really cool. I absolutely get the vibe of an autumn hike, sunlight dappling a forest floor where little flowers and mushrooms grow.

    I love the swatches ❤️ I'm dyeing yarn for the first time today! Not natural dyes, using the dry Rit dye and going to speckle some Angel/01 baby yarn by Yarn Bee!! I spent 15 minutes last night turning it back into a hank from a skien lol

    Did you make your cropped sweater with your most beautiful yarn? Was the 2 skeins enough. Loved the swatch to see how beautiful it worked up.
    I'm needing more food coloring 😊

    Thank you so much for sharing g this! You've inspired me to give this a go, I'm so excited! I absolutely loved the swatch at the end so please do this in future videos! I'd love to know, if knitted up into a wearable, how does it hold up once it's been washed? :)

  • @dahlia8870
    @dahlia8870 Рік тому +1

    Yes, it’s great to see the yarn being used. When you rinse it, do you just use water? Anything to set the dye? Thank you

    • @LastMinuteLaura
      @LastMinuteLaura  Рік тому

      I just rinsed it in water. The dye was set in the dye pot when we added vinegar! Thanks for watching :)

    i for one really get a lot out of seeing the yarn worked up!
    i also had a question, b/c i might try dyeing with food coloring: does yarn that is already dyed need to be scoured? i have some red yarn that i bought that i would like to overdye for some color variegation. i also assume it will need to be mordanted.
