Round 7, I can haz bloo?

Um, so this time I JUST used Royal Blue. I swear.

This was really confusing & troublesome at first because I only used Royal Blue, and I used a lot of water in my dyebath in the hopes of it being a lighter & ostensibly evener colour. Fail.

However, I think I know what happened here. I use 1/4 c. vinegar for my acid. I think I accidentally put my vinegar water in my tea kettle. So when I boiled water to dissolve the dye in, I used a bunch of vinegar. Oops.

So, I soaked this roving sa'more & stirred up some black with NO vinegar. It's still in the crockpot, but I think it's going to be a delicious midnight blue, which will be perfect for Batman. Heee.

Kool Aid Berry Blue use 4 packets. Only use 1/4 C vinegar to each pound of fiber.
