Fun in the kitchen and other projects



It's a rainy, overcast February vaction here in NH so the kids and I have been experimenting. I let them both try their hands at Kool Aid dyeing and did a large dye project of my own. Mine was 9 skeins of Paons Classic Wool I found on clearance. Started out as a light purple that totally wasn't my color but couldn't be passed by at half off, especially when I had a coupon for 20% off that price. Each skein came out quite different but I think I can use them for a sweater if I alternate skeins as I knit. Then there's the kids' projects. Zoe dyed her yarn bright orange and Fin and I dyed his maroon. Now I just need to figure out what to make them with their yarn.
