also you are a moron.

:( You're not a moron, you just have meglexia.

lazulisong August 23 2007, 21:01:46 UTC

meglexia?

is this like, dyslexia for megs?

The HELL of it is, if I had a car available to me right now, I would be in town getting more Koolaid and dying something else, it is that stupid and interesting to do.

It sounded more clever in my head :(

That sucks. There isn't even like a depanneur or a Seven-Eleven near by where you can get some?

....was that Ava's hat?

lazulisong August 23 2007, 22:31:35 UTC

no, Ava's hat is done and it's not wool, it a cotton and wool blend that wouldn't take an acid dye well anyway.

w...what kind of knitted object are we talking about, here? :) I loves coloredly-challenged objects! ^_^

I dunno, either hat or mitts. It's looking better now that it's dried but it is NOT PURPLE AND GREEN :[ which was the plan.

yeah, koolaid acts as an acid dye for protein fibres. And how, I ran this yarn under running water and the water came out clear. There's actual acid dyes that are presumably not um Red #40, but they're expensive and kind of scary to read the warnings for.

I um, will try to warn you if I wear something made with it.
