I had a skein of Lion Brand Fishermen's Wool that I divided into three smaller hanks so I could play with some icing color.
I intended to do a gradient dye with this one, but my blue broke on one end, giving me a spot of pink/purple (damn you, Red #3). When my husband saw the skein, he said, "It would look cool if you could get some more of those purple bits on it." So, I twisted the skein to preserve some of the lighter areas of blue and immersed the skein in a new dye bath.
The next two skeins I did in the crock pot and poured color on. I think I may run the last one through another dye bath to deepen the color a bit.
