All That and a Box of Crayons: NO, that is not SPAGHETTI! It's custom yarn dye!

Im not going to lie, dyeing yarn is pretty darn fun! I love seeing the outcome! I wanted to share this craft with you. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I have and will continue to do. I WANT TO SEE PICTURES when you do it :) Post on my FB page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Granny-In-Style/195714050446750

What you'll need

Oven 250 degrees
WOOL
Kool-aid (1 pack of kool-aid will fill 4 ice trays) I used about 4 packs per skein.
Vinegar
Ice trays
Gloves ( I didn't have them and my hands got dye all over them)
Cooking pot (big enough to fit the skein)
Water
Casserole pan

SO here it goes. Pre heat oven 250 degrees
First you must have WOOL yarn. That is VERY VERY important. Put the yarn in the pot. Fill the pot with water, enough to cover the majority of the yarn. I covered about 3/4 of the yarn. Dump in a few cups of vinegar. I didn't measure, sorry. Turn the stove on medium high and sit the pot on there. Let the yarn "cook" for 30 minutes - hour. Rotate the yarn if you need to to make sure all of it soaks up the mixture. Hope that all makes sense!

While that is cooking, I get the dye prepped. My ice tray has 16 ice cube slots. So thats how much dye I create. 1 packet will fill 4 ice trays. Here's the trick. I got my ice tray and filled 4 slots with water. I then dumped that water into a cup, so I can tell how much water is needed. I am a visual person so that is how I measured the rest of my dyes. Now that the water is in the cup put 1 pack of koolaid into the cup of water. Mix it. Dump that into 4 ice tray slots. Now fill up that same cup with approximately the same amount of water. (you dont have to be perfect) Dump in another pack of koolaid and put it into 4 more slots. Continue to do this with all of your colors. Put in freeze to freeze.

Next take the yarn out of the pot. I used a pair of tongs to do so. If you need to let it cool for a little bit. Once it is cool enough for you to handle, gently wring out some of the liquid. You do not have to wring it completely out so dont worry. Now gently loosen up the yarn and place it in the casserole pan.

When the dye is completely frozen place it onto your yarn. Any way you want to.

Now place in the oven. I cooked it for an hour. You can check on it. You want it to run clear water. You will be able to see that in the bottom of the pan.
