Got my KA and my yarn ready for tonight! I am going to use your method as I want to try to gradient dye some stuff.

Oh, and my perfection dyes are in the mail, you enabler!

DON'T!!!!! use your plastic iced tea pitcher to hold the yarn that's out of the pot, unless you almost want to burn your house down.

hey, it turned out great! It still didn't dye 100% even, but it will be wonderful knit up. I'll take a pic and post it tonight. John's leaving in the morning and will be gone 2 weeks, so it's been a crazy weekend.
