Dye Time #52: Ice Dyeing with a Twist! Dyeing Yarn in a Plastic Bottle using Acid Dyes, Dye Over Ice

[@muisescro-knitdesignswanda615]

Hi from Nova Scotia, I just found your channel. Great experiment and loved the way it turned out. Please experiment away, I looking forward to watching more.

Hello Nova Scotia! I’m so glad your enjoying my videos. I’ve got more experiments lined up which I can’t wait to try.

[@SequoiaMakes]

Cool! Definitely a fan of experimentation, so I'd definitely say yes, experiment away! One thing I was thinking of with the bottle and ice dyeing is perhaps you could layer the dye a little in the yarn hank and then add the ice. I bet it would be a bit different effect. Just curios. Thanks for a fun video!

[@FromTheCauldron]

That’s a great idea! I’ll definitely be doing that next time. Thank you for the suggestion ❤️

[@dawnjanz]

I agree, I think you'd get more even color thru the yarn

We are having a heat wave here in Canada, 38 forecast for today🥵🥵🥵 40 for a few days coming up!

[@FromTheCauldron]

I’d be a puddle on the floor in those temperatures.

[@stonewallsfarm3105]

Yes! Random color!! So much fun, especially when you are able to use multiple dye techniques. Love it!

[@FromTheCauldron]

Yes! Thank you! I love the surprise at the end.

Now what? you have to knit/crochet it?

[@FromTheCauldron]

Once I find the perfect project, I’ll knit it.

Cool. Looks delicious with the noodles cooking

[@FromTheCauldron]

Thank you 😋

So so sooooo much fun! Why are you so out of breathe? I hope you are well!

[@FromTheCauldron]

When I have my mask on, it sounds like I'm out of breath. I'm fine though! Thank you for asking :)

UK here. Just found your channel and I will definitely be doing this. I love ice dyeing but have only ever used cotton fabric before. Thanks.

[@FromTheCauldron]

Welcome and thank you! Good luck with your dyeing adventure.

[@sonjanordahl3158]

I have always wondered why people don't but a yarn in the bottom for a second dye lot.

[@FromTheCauldron]

I always try to use up as much dye as possible. That extra skein is always fun and unpredictable.

I've never seen ice dyeing like this before, it's amazing. Would you be able to advise where I can buy the stand you use for the bottle please? Thank you x

[@FromTheCauldron]

The stand I'm using is one I got years ago for holding silicone candle moulds. The closest I've found online now is metal wax melt/burner stands. Something like this might work: suppliesforcandles.co.uk/product/black-wax-burner-on-silver-stand?gclid=Cj0KCQiAsburBhCIARIsAExmsu74PyWdPgqTWlbgE0FmxDd0Q9o9v9IY0KyjJN40ZjkhdQ3ot-RSwJQaAqjMEALw_wcB As long as the dish the wax is melted in is removable, I'd think it would work for this ice dyeing method.

[@kathrynmorgandesigns5083]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate your reply x

[@FromTheCauldron]

Not a problem!
