Yarn Dying Extravaganza!
Last Sunday & Monday while Kyle was in Iowa zipping around a racetrack on his shiny green ZX-10, the girls & I dyed yarn! We had a great time as the photos show. Megan chose the front end of the rainbow with red, orange & yellow while Jessica went for the end of the rainbow choosing green, blue & purple. The first attempt with grape Kool-Aid resulted in a muddy skein of yarn so we tried over with egg dye and achieved a much better result. They both decided all they wanted to do with the yarn was make yarn balls so we spent a good part of Monday afternoon winding by hand. I think they enjoyed it!
The photos in the mosaic ended up backwards in the layout so the process starts on the bottom right.

You know how to have fun with your little nieces! Why didn't they have things to do like this when I was little?LOL
Seems they had such a big lot of fun, how great - and they sure did a fantastic dyeing job! Thanks for sharing these pics!
What is it with that Grape Kool Aid, I have had some really strange results myself!
