The yarn, the Kool-Aid and some size 11 needles were a Solstice gift to Elah this (last) year. She picked the colors for our Kool-Aid dyeing; we used 2 packets of Strawberry, 2 packets of grape and, for the turquoise, one packet of arctic green apple and one packet of berry blue. We followed the tutorial on Knitty, microwave method. Elah plans to knit a hat.
