The colors definitely stayed deeper this time, but my washer
is a lovely color of pink even after several rounds of bleach.
I love the yarn, but do wish I could find a way to keep the
white part white. I want the stark
contrast. This lovely mix reminds me
of raspberry sherbet, and when I wind the other skeins into balls, I’ll have a
good selection of wine red-pink to create yummy hats. The yarn is not nearly as pink as the picture makes it out
to be; it’s more like the dress.
I’m quite happy with my dress. It will fit another few months at least, doesn’t squish my
pregnant belly, and is interesting to study. I’m sure some of my friends think I’m nuts for dyeing
dresses, but this should hide the dropped-food stains well!
The girls are begging for matching dresses, so I see more dyeing in our near future! (I've ordered the dresses from Dharma Trading, and love the quality and weight of the fabric.)
