My first attempt and dying wool

Step 1: soak the wool in some warm water and white vinegar, ive got no idea how much, i just tipped the bottle in the sink full of water!

step 2: mix the dye, well this was fun, i had NO idea how much dye to use to how much water, and even if i should of added vinegar to the mix, so i did anyway, made some pretty colours in the water! i used boiling water to dilute the dye, again no idea if i was meant to, but trial and error is a good thing!

step 3: add the wool to the dye, hmmmm where does this blue come from when im dying purple and pink.... oh thank god its gone the right colour, or has it? ive left it for 10 minutes, all the dye has come out of the water, the water is now blue..... this blue colour keeps cropping up, i dunno what ive done wrong there!

step 4: rinse, rinse, rinse, well i think thats what your meant to do..... and yay the colour stays in the wool!

step 5: hang and dry, note to self: remove all objects of clothing underneith the clothing airer because the dye drips.... oops!

yay, ive dyed wool!!

now im too scared to wash it incase the dye all runs!! the purples not as purple as i would like, but the pink is really funky, and i know some different ways to do it next time, so i will give it a go again! well... one day.... maybe......
