The color of the two on the sides didn't come out great in picture, but at least this picture finally captures the color of the angel hair dye. The angel hair and the corridale on the right were both dyed with pretty much the same dye -- half a packet of cherry pomegranite crystal light -- and look how different their colors came out. I'm curious to see how much of the color difference can be attributed to their being different fibers (the angel hair is a superwash merino, the corridale is fawn ecru corridale) and how much of it is different fiber-being-dyed amounts (as you can see, the angel hair is probably an ounce, while the corridale was 20 ounces. Big difference). The corridale on the left was dyed with a combination of Crystal Light lemonade and cherry pomigranite. I was going to dye it just with the lemonade, but the color didn't seem to come out well (the fiber was kind of yellow-ish to begin with), so I started mixing in cherry pomigranite. It looks almost undyed in the picture, but there is some color to it in real life -- still, might re-dye it tomorrow. Not enthralled with the color. Or I might just spin it with the pure cherry pomigranite and do a candy-cane-ish thing. Not sure yet.
This was a fun Sharpie Tie Dye project from Char at Crap I've Made. www.crapivemade.com/2010/08/sharpie-tie-dye-t-shirts.html
We had a blast doing it! I blogged about it here twincess.blogspot.com/2010/09/sharpie-tie-dye.html
Self striping yarn. Each half of the yarn is in a separate jar of prepared dyebath, then placed in a simmering pot of water.
Between the premordanting, winding of loooong skein of yarn, collecting the dyestuffs and preparing each dyebath, then the actual dyeing, rinsing, and re-skeining,t his is a long process.

I really love how these turned out. I am super, super bummed that I rolled too tightly for the second colour and the purple barely penetrated.
Nonetheless, bright pink leggings!

A lab at Neversink Dye. The roof had leaked so bad above the lab that there was a 2 inch sheet of ice on the floor below and a constand flow of new water seeping in from the melting snow above. Neversink Dye Company was one of the largest commercial dye manufacturers in the world. Their dyes colored everything from plastics and ceramics to food and clothing. The massive compound was closed when production was moved to St. Louis. Shot with a Panasonic 20mm.
This is the Puffer fish before I dyed him with coffee. He was first needle-felted with white wool, then 2 toned dyed with coffee. I dyed his whole body in a diluted mixture of coffee, water, & a little vinegar. Then dyed the top half of him in a more concentrated mixture.
Not been out and about much so thought I'd try some stuff indoors. Just messing around with food dye. Didn't have the set up quite right this first time of trying, will hopefully do better next time!
