*three hours later*
i have a bowl of washed and picked wool that is now soaking in my sink with a tiny splash of vinegar to be separated out and dyed in the morning!
i also found my dyes and dug out my dyepot and spoon. Pro Tip: don't mix kitchen pots with dyepots if you use professional non-foodsafe dyes. also wear gloves and a respirator if you are working with the powdered stuff. that stuff gets *everywhere* omg.
i'll post pics as soon as i figure out the colors i want. i'm thinking... seafoam, copper, coral, lavender and maybe a dark gold? maybe a pale chestnut? i use CMYK ratios to mix my dyes and it's been a while. so it'll be anyone's guess what i end up with.
