The red is perfect, but the blue is not soaking evenly. I used like 11 packets of dye, so it should be enough to saturate it. I think I need to add the yarn to the dye for a saturated color, and not vice
versa as I have been doing.

I love this red/orange color! 3 packets of Cherry to 1 packet of Orange.
Fantabulous.

The blue is eh. I mean, I really like the color, finally. It's 1.5 of Grape, 4 of Ice Blue Lemonade, and about 6 of the other blue one. I just which it was more even, whatever the shade ended up being. I'm going to make
Vestee from Knitty with this, short sleeved with a hood. I dyed two skeins of
KnitPicks Bare
Superwash worsted. A little less than a quarter of the skein I wound is the red/orange. I wound it around my table to make it longer, and I think I would like a longer one, with the red orange as an accent. I haven't wound the stuff, it's
actually still sunbathing, so we'll see how it ends up.
