Valentine's Day Mystery Yarn is ready to ship! - chemknitscreations.etsy.com/listing/1840397492 with a handmade valentine and extras!
As a pink loving girl 👩🏻🎤, this is the most beautiful yarn!! 💕💕💕💕
Thank you so much!
I love those colours. I‘d have worried about getting an overall orange hue but you managed to keep the colours distinct like a sunset. So stunning.
Thank you so much!!!
This video gave me an idea for some other fun ways to pick colors you might not ever put together on your own. I've seen makeup artists use this technique and found it so much fun to watch. Choose a candy and create your colorways with the colors on the wrappers. You could poll your patreon members to choose which candy they want to see first.
Anyway, I would like to thank you for reigniting my passion for art, color theory, and science all in one channel. 💗
Candy wrappers would be fun inspiration images for sure! Next months' dyepot ps is actually a color inspiration photo dyeing video. (not candy, but it is an image.)
I think that “ballet pink” you got on the 100% silk is just beautiful!
Thank you so much!!
The yellow stayed! Woohoo! The luminance especially is so pretty.
I'm so glad I didn't lose the yellow!
As soon as you said "starburst" that's all I could think.
I absolutely need to go dye starburst yarn now. And possibly buy some starburst. 🤣The dark red are my faves...
I like all flavros except the yellow
That's a beautiful combination of colors, Rebecca.
Thank you so much!
Hey Rebecca! The "wax" on jelly beans is actually shellac. Y'know, the bug goo. 😬 I'd just not use jelly beans again. Chalkier candies like smarties or bottlecaps would probably work well.
These skeins reminded me of Starbursts too! Very fun!
I stick with chalkier candies, too!
Im in love with all the pink and yellow!!! ❤❤
Thank you! It is such a happy introduction
I think these colours worked well. The yarn turned out amazing
Thank you! I'm happy with how the colors turned out too.
That is one cheerful colorway
Thank you so much!
Just FYI...I've dyed a lot of silk blends and I have found that I loose that silky look & feel if I used a higher heat. Especially with more acid. I lost it totally with citric acid mixed with my powder.
Gorgeous colors ❤
Thank you!
It looks like a combination of raspberry, orange, and lemon sherbet!
It does!!
Gorgeous, I now want to dye some silk.
Silk dyes up so nicely!
Beautiful!
Thank you so much! These colors make me so happy.
I checked out the ingredients for Starburst and it doesn't look like they have wax in them, so you should be OK if you try that. But I do agree that it looks like a variety of Starburst!
I don't think they'd dissolve that easily, so I'll probably avoid them just the same.
Lace weight yes!
Had to buy a skein, I feel so lucky there was one available.
Thank you so much! I'm shipping it out shortly.
This turned out soooo pretty! I have a hard time with yellow. I try to use it but it seems like the other colors I use over take it. I have never dyed anything with silk yet- I am very curious to try it. 😊
I try to give yellows more space and make them bigger so they may stick around
Things you'll hear only here:
"I dyed yarn with jelly beans..." 😊
❤
Thank you so much!
Merci beaucoup pour cette vidéo traduite oralement en français ❤ une question s’il vous plaît, j’ai des colorants Jacquard à la maison, quand je prépare des teintures mères à 1% elles ne fonctionnent pas bien quelques jours après.... dépôts au fond du pot et couleur non conforme..... je conserve à l ’abri de la lumière et chaleur dans des pots en verre avec couvercle métal. Comment faites vous pour conserver les teintures mères svp? Merci à vous 😊
I store my dyestocks under a sink, out of directly sunlight. Some colors aren't as soluable as others so you may need to shake the stocks to help re-mix the colors
Make sure they aren't fiber reactive dyes.
@@mlatham23 ce sont des colorants de la marque Jacquard, les mêmes , peut être que la conversation dans des pots à confiture n'est pas bonne , peut être que c'est mieux dans des bouteilles en plastique. 🤷♀️
