Kool-aid dye week day 2

Day Two of dye week is kettle dyeing. This is my yarn in the pan. I added the packets of kool aid to the bottom of the pan and then added the boiling water.
This is the kool-aid in the water. I poured more warm water and kool aid from a seperate cup over the top of the yarn. Then I boiled it more till the water went clear.
This is my finished yarn! Better pictures once it dries.

All the things I finished in Arkansas

This is a simple ripple pattern done in Bernat baby coordinates orchid
This is http://crochet.about.com/od/baby-clothes/a/free-crochet-baby-cardigan-pattern.htm. It is also done out of circus print by lionbrand. I love it. I added the bottom ruffle and the flowers.
This is a single crochet double crochet blanket made from baby jacquards morning glory.

This is baby jaquards bluebell-http://www.bernat.com/pattern.php?PID=3836


This is Lionbrand baby soft-in circus print. I love it! This is a simple ripple pattern and the border is just three double crochet in each stitch. :)


This is baby jacquards boo berries. it started with doing this pattern for the squares
http://www.crochetnmore.com/cottoncandysquare.htm   And then two other squares because I got tired of doing the same one. I can't really find the links for the other two sqaures. Though I got them off of crochet pattern central grannt squares. I will be on a search for the other squares patterns.
