I love almost everything about dyeing yarn with Kool-Aid: The ease of finding Kool-Aid, the price, the smell, the novelty, the colors, the fun. On the other hand, I cannot accurately predict the outcome and I’m struggling to get dark red to stay in the yarn. I’m happy with the effects I achieved with dyeing the yarn this time, but I’m not entirely sure that the color will not bleed if the yarn gets wet. Today, I will share how to Kool-Aid dye silk yarn. I’ll share tips and cautions I discovered through trial and error (so many errors). Even if the results aren’t perfect, dyeing with Kool-Aid is still inexpensive and fun!
