Finally. Here is my gap copy in color now; this is my first and second try at LWI dyeing. The colors are a little off because the sun was so bright; they are a little deeper really. I'm going to try again with deep purple and chartreuse to see what happens, and have plans to buy more dye when the budget allows.
thanks for looking!

Nice top. Great job on the dying. I have a pile that keeps growing that I need to dye and never manage to find the time. :rolleyes:

Thanks everyone!
Livn4them-- here's the link that was posted here that I used for directions: Selena's hand dyeing page http://www.motherhues.com/id39.htm
The lesson I learned is to read instructions clearly before starting. You need pH INCREASER to fix the dye, not Decreaser.
