Homestead Series How To Dye Wool Yarn With Kool-Aid

A new hobby of mine is dying yarn. You can easily dye wool with kool-aid or food coloring. In this video I'm using kool-aid. Step 1. Put 1 to 2 inches of luke warm water in your crock pot and a "glug" of vinegar. Place your skein of yarn in the crock pot. Step 2. Turn the crock on high and cover. Leave it until steam it starts steaming, try not to let it boil. That could cause it to felt. Step 3. Place kool-aid into a heat proof container. I like measuring cups, they are easiest to pour from. Cover with about 1/2 a cup of boiling water. Stir to dissolve. Let the kool-aid cool until close in temperature to the yarn. Step 4. Pour the coloring on top of the yarn in the pattern you like. They will mix a little were they touch. The more dye/liquid you have in the crock the more likely they are to mix together. Step 5. Turn the crock down to low and cover. Leave it until the yarn has absorbed all the dye and the water is clear. Step 6. Turn off the heat and let yarn cool completely. Step 7. Remove yarn and rinse well, until the water rinses clear. Step 8. Drain and gently press out as much water in the sink as you can. Lay yarn on a towel, roll up and press out the rest of the water. Hang to dry. This is a great site to check out to learn more about color mixing. www.spindleandwheel.com
