my newly dyed now boy yarn

See Daniel? It's a boy!

It didn't dye completely evenly. I hope it looks ok when I knit it up for dh. He might want rogue... but he's undecided. I think he thinks rogue would be ok. Oy!

I also overdyed a test strip of the sport weight wool my MIL gave me and it's a gorgeous darker blue--I think I will dye the entire bag, though varigation is calling me... I have sky blue (knitpicks acid dyes, used above on alpaca) and also sapphire, so I can play.

And *then* I have an entire EXTRA bag of the same stuff, worsted weight, and I tried kool-aid and then dharma procion dyeing that, but I still don't like it, it's dark teal. So hmm....
