Now I look up projects made with the yarn, on Ravelry to get an idea of the way the colour pools. (doesn't work for uncommon/artisan dyed yarn). <br />You could try over-dyeing with onion skins...it should give the deep rust that is already in the yarn. I'd love to see your results!Eloisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08763073181758714591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1557115928114062878.post-90083372341072397682012-04-18T11:42:35.304+10:002012-04-18T11:42:35.304+10:00This is an interesting lesson learnt by you.

I think your backup plans are brilliant though. I betcha it'll look stunning after the first plan - the red dye. It'll get all tonal-like.
