egg yarn colors

Recommended Posts

this time of year in michigan just about every vise has an egg pattern being tied glo bug yarn comes in alot of colors but sometimes you can't find the color you want well here is a bit of a tip you might not know

glo bug egg yarn can be dyed very easily with food coloring just add a few drops to some warm water let the yarn soak for 10 minutes pull out rinse and let dry once it is dry it wont wash out best color to buy for dying it yourself is the egg color hope this helps out a few people

Thx for the great tip. I have never been quite satified with the colors of my egg yarn, plus I have a batch that the sun got to.
