Most of the dyers in my area get muddy, drab tones, or insist on mixing purple and orange in EVERYTHING. Keep up with those saturated, clear, vivid colors!!roxiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14916948065233137971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397483.post-19749308766037014082007-02-16T13:58:00.000-05:002007-02-16T13:58:00.000-05:00Okay, I'm w/everybody else--I'm all for the Thermo...Okay, I'm w/everybody else--I'm all for the Thermonuclear Fuck, myself... (But I'd love to see some saturated pastel laceweight...I don't see enough of that in the catalogs and I'm sort of in that place right now. (Did I mention I'm a color slut?) The light box is supremely clever--as are most cheap-o albeit useful ideas. (Have you ever noticed that the stuff that costs us the least is the stuff we're the most attached to? It's the only thing that can explain my insane fascination with cheap yarn when I have so much better in my stash.)Amy Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04885706951931450373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397483.post-11054976276365387842007-02-16T13:48:00.000-05:002007-02-16T13:48:00.000-05:00did I actually say cheap-o?

Imagine him in hot pink. LOL. <BR/><BR/>Julie, the lightbox is awesome. I love it. And as a cheap-o myself who HATES designed obsolescence, it's an awesome use of already-existing materials. <BR/><BR/>LOVE the Thermonuclear. And mostly love reading about your experiments.

I have dyed Briggs and Little wool before and I dyed both their heritage (100% wool) and Tuffy (15% nylon) in the same dyelot and their colors turned out exactly the same.<BR/><BR/>You probably already know this but I find makes a HUGE difference is if the yarn you use is not just a natural white, but a bleached white. Bleached white yarn makes very vibrant colors.<BR/><BR/>Still, I LOVE the color you ended up with!Maggie Tippinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03199584979474317861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397483.post-63365454181106650872007-02-16T05:03:00.000-05:002007-02-16T05:03:00.000-05:00The thermonuclear superwash is much brighter (and ...The thermonuclear superwash is much brighter (and therefore I like it more)... mmm, contemplating just handing you my paycheque every month...Louizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05691100508790921779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21397483.post-66971584879414005332007-02-15T21:52:00.000-05:002007-02-15T21:52:00.000-05:00I like both the variants.
