Pink Problems

I need to make a pair of mittens (the Hermione mittens) to match my new down vest so I decided to use some dye your own yarn I had lying around. I had a limited selection of kool-aid in the cupboard and took my pick with strawberry. If I only use a little bit of powder it should turn out pink right?











Apparently that doesn't work so I'll either have to try this over with pink lemonade or head to a yarn shop in search of pale pink yarn.

Now, what should I do with the hot pink yarn????
