I would like to know wood carving

I crochet most. I do some machine sewing. I do some knitting. I used to do folk art painting, but I wasn’t very good at it.   I am also very good at house painting though, and decorating, and sometimes enjoy cooking.

I really want to try dyeing yarn. I love beautiful handdyed yarns and I think it would be really fun to make my own. Like painting but you get pretty yarn from it.

Acid dyeing is surprisingly easy, if you havent tried it yet. You can experiment on a small scrap of yarn to see how it works. Any animal fiber will do. Put the yarn scrap in a microwaveable container filled with water, a splash of vinegar and a few drops of food coloring, heat it in the microwave for a bit and see the magic happen.

That one can be very fun! You can even use Kool-Aid or other food-safe flavorings for a first go at it if you like!

Kool-Aid is awesome. Soda drinks containing food coloring and citric acid work well too, no need to add anything else. Theres a video online that shows how well this works with wool simmered in orange Fanta.
