It must be said - that without the know-how and skill offered up for the task by DollinkDaughterJrS, the results might not have been quite so beauteous.

Huzzah for a collaborative* effort!
*Read: we chose just the right combo of Kool-Aid colors. Double dipped and over dyed, even.

But I wanna know! Does it smell like berry Kool Aide? Mmmmmmmm

The yarn does smell very fruity indeed - we used at least 4 different 'flavors' to achieve those colors.

As you can guess, I am now hooked on dye-it-yourself. Just made an online purchase of more natural yarn + Jacquard Acid Dyes. This fiber addiction is ridiculous!

Knit on!
