I've never done anything with wool before until last week.
A friend asked if I could make her some wool soakers. I thought "why the efff not". You know?
Only I have found nooo patterns for what I wanted, so I freehanded it.
My dye job sucks, but hey I tried...and plus got some cool leftover woo to make a bag with.

So yeah..on to the pictures.

Here is what they looked like pre-dye job.





Here's how the look post-dye job.









I take it as a good sign that she wants more? :)

Also, how do I get my colors to be vibrant? I used one package of koolaid, one cup of water and one ounce of vinegar.....like..per each thing of koolaid.
I used 2 sets of that for everything.

Will letting them soak longer make the color brighter?
