Evan’s first hand dyed roving!
I let my 4-year old dye his very own roving the other day. I mixed up Neon food coloring dyes, put them in squeeze bottles, and told him to have at it. The only thing I helped with was squishing the dye into the wool as he squeezed. Didn’t it come out fantastic! (and in case you are wondering, food coloring dyes ARE washfast and colorfast dyes as long as you set it with vinegar and heat. Perfect for kids!)
And here is the resulting yarn.
Love it!
