dye project results . .

the onion skin dye was successful. i love the color.

 
however, today i tried dyeing the second skein of cotton yarn with powdered pomegranate extract . .


and it did not go well, unfortunately. i'm not sure why . . perhaps i hadn't cleaned the pot out well enough after working with the onion skins? from my research, it should have dyed a golden yellow. i'd like to dye over it, but i'm not sure what plant dye would help it look better.

pluto parked himself on top of a yarn stash bin while i was looking for a particular skein for chanda.
