Silk Dyed with Black Food Coloring





I may have to correct the order but I'm going to try to post them right. I have not been able to catch the exact color of any of these. I've taken several pictures and these are the closest but not exact. The lighter blue was the first I dyed with 1/2 bottle of black food coloring. The second one was mostly a greenish color and brown with other colors thrown in. I added vinegar to this one. After taking the second one out, I added the rest of the bottle of black food coloring. The third one is mostly turquoise. I added a little more vinegar after taking the third one out. The fourth one is beautiful. Bob said it looked like my head. (He is feeling better after the lump went down) He said it was lavender, pink, blond, and dark. Ok, I haven't dyed my hair for a long time. Everything is natural. I need to find out where the lavender is though. He said the pink is my head. The red with the last one is wool. It is several shades of pink and red.

I've started spinning the fourth one. It is beautiful. I'll post the yarn when I get it done.
