I call this my Easter Surprise Project because I set it up the night before and saw the results on Easter morning.
This was my 1st experiment in cooler dyeing. I took some wool batts that I had processed on my drum carder and layered them in a cooler, sprinkling the layers with 6 different shades of blue, green and yellow dye. Then I covered them with boiling water - being carful not to stir them up. Then I added more boiling water mixed with vinegar and poured it all over the batts. I closed up the cooler and didn't peek until Easter Morning. This is how my dyed batts looked.
