dyeing with kool-aid

I spent some of yesterday dyeing samples for my project. Somehow because of the combination of it being Monday, early and not done coffee, I somehow managed to make my first set of samples with a 1% strength dye solution instead of 100%. Um. Heh.

 

The colors are pretty pastels, and I have recorded all the stupidity so I can replicate them if I like, the only thing is, this project is a hat for my husband, something tells me this isn't the palette of choice.

 

FAIL.
