Thanks for your ‘epiphany’ and accompanying thoughts 🙂. I appreciate you churning through the yarn on my behalf, so I can dye with *marginally* more purpose and finesse than I otherwise could. Thanks, keep it up! 😉
@ChemKnits Tutorials thank you for posting GG's video link. As intrigued as I always am in your dying of fibers, your tee-shirt caught my eye and for many moments intrigued me even more. I find the more I watch your videos, the more I see a commonality which I love! And that includes white fluffy Eskies...
I think blue, green, and brown would be neat! Brown-green and blue-green are great mixes, so the only contrast would be brown and blue, and that could still end up pretty cool.
Oh interesting I didn't know that! I bought the shirt from GGMadeIt last summer. She shared "Stand in the Gap" in response to people asking how they could help her and it was such a powerful phrase that I try to keep in mind every day. ggmadeit.com/stand-in-the-gap-commit-to-change/ (I highly recommend you check her out if you haven't seen her on social media. She loves Orange even more than I love Purple.)
Thanks for the video! I wonder if there is something like a "timing" when you do Leave No Dye Behind. I don't know if this is what happens when you do it IRL, but in the videos, it looks like you do it AFTER dyeing something else. So maybe there is a state of mind at this point that is important to get to let go. For example, after having to think a lot about a project, sometimes changing the process while you film, your brain is saturated. Then, when it's time to Leave No Dye Behind, the exhaustion makes you want to finish this segment quickly and that's when the "magic" occurs. But it's just a theory. :)
It is an EXCELENT theory! Sometimes I do LNDB the next morning or something but often it is at the very end of a day of filming and I'm going for something fast to use up the dye as I clean up. :D
I do sometimes! I have a few videos specifically where I show the yarn dyeing and then the finished knit item at the end: ua-cam.com/play/PLFvm3Bz7dhaUTFdDhpSRlPE5E6KvnSUBA.html
OOoooo....Two pans or one pan? This is an interesting idea. I'm about to start (slowly) crude powder swatching colors from different brands together in one pan to try to get a feel for which are super similar to one another. .
I wear plenty of dark colours so I always think, I can just over-dye it until it ends up basically black if I don't like what I've made, I've got plenty of chances to add more layers before it gets to that point and I'm happy with black if that's where it ends up :)
@@larksie great point. I wear lots of black. I too have dye, yarn, rope, fabrics, and have not dyed anything yet... but, you make a great point. I can always dye over it!

You are so welcome!

This sounds lovely!!
Excellent OT verse you are wearing. Ezekiel 20:33. I remember "standing in the gap" in my youth group in the 70s.

Supper beautiful
Thank you so much!
Do you ever show what you make withers yarns?

I'd like to see a side-by-side comparison of the same colors of two different dye brands, done using this video's technique.
OOoooo....Two pans or one pan? This is an interesting idea. I'm about to start (slowly) crude powder swatching colors from different brands together in one pan to try to get a feel for which are super similar to one another. .
@@ChemKnitsTutorials Two pans, simultaneous. Brand A in pan 1, Brand B in pan 2.
Rebecca, I bought the yarn, I bought the acid dyes, but, I’m still not brave enough to dye. Hmmmmmm.
And that's totally okay! You can see in early DPW videos that I was super nervous about it, too.
I was like that also Linda. I just over dye the yarn. Always more yarn at the store. Lol good luck
I wear plenty of dark colours so I always think, I can just over-dye it until it ends up basically black if I don't like what I've made, I've got plenty of chances to add more layers before it gets to that point and I'm happy with black if that's where it ends up :)

@@vermontmom4232 Yeah, go for it! :D Have fun, and if you're not into the result, have fun again dyeing over it.
What about greens and blues
Yes!!!!
