This is white Romney that I span on a drop spindle. I recently discovered Kool-Aid dyeing and had some fun in the kitchen :-)
Karen, isn't Kool-Aid dyeing fun? One of my favorite ways to dye - try food coloring and Easter egg dye, too. I'm curious - what flavor gave that lovely soft blue? Cris
With a few odds and ends, you could make a solar oven and "bake" them in the sun.
I found a kitty litter box painted black with plexi-glass worked best, fastest.

I think it was called Ice Blue Raspberry Lemonade. What is your procedure for using food coloring?
nice work!!!! both spinning and dyeing! well done!
It's pretty much the same as for Kool-Aid - only you don't need as much, of course, and it's easier to mix colors and get shades and tints.
Denise, I like your idea of the black kitty litter pan. I have used a glass-topped casserole dish and a foil turkey-roasting pan with a sheet of glass covering it with good results, too.
