i need colorway ideas

[Amanda Lou]

I have some yarn to knit up, but can't think of anything that will look good. I can use KA, Wiltons and I have the following colors in perfection dyes: seal brown, plum, coral, silver gray and dark green.

I need to make one more pair of longies and I want to make a skirty. I am thinking I want to go with warm/darker/winter colors, but can't figure out what color combintation I want.

I found the directions on dying wool with RIT. I am going to experiment with that too.

I think a plum, dark green and brown would be very Fall-ish and rich.

Based on this!

[Lisa]

I think those would look great.

[Amy]

Orange, gold and...brown...purple?

[Amanda Lou]

oooh, rit!

Phoebe--that would be great for the skirty!

I was thinking orange, brown, green and silver?

[Lisa]

Have you tried RIT yet?

[Amanda Lou]

no. It's supposed to work on wool?

[Lisa]

It is. It is a *thinkthinkthink* uh....

It plays for both teams. :laugh:

Can be used on protein or animal fibers. That is why so much dye is left in the pot. It never exhausts. It has both kinds in it.
