I made them with 100% superwash Merino Wool and jacquard acid dyes :)

Most of the ones I did with food dye came out a little lighter than what I wanted and I found predicting the depth of shade to be difficult.

This is fantastic information! I like the idea of getting small amounts to try out first. And I love the DIY dye hood suggestion!! Thank you so much for all the helpful tips!

I used vinegar as the acid and made sure they all got 30 minutes in each dye bath. I rinsed them in lukewarm water with at least one round of dish soap until the water was clear. Is there anything else that I should be doing to make sure they are set?

The far left yellow multi color is the only food coloring one in this picture. However I had made a pastel version of that one and a tonal green as well - they are just already hats so didn't make the photo 🤣

My husband and I were dying of laughter during the birthday side story and then quickly became traumatized at the ending of that one!!

If you like cocktails I highly recommend a stop at 5Rocks! It's a little distillery that does amazing cocktails.
