I threw it all into my crockpot to dye with food coloring. I used 1/2 teaspoon of citric acid crystals dissolved in 4 cups of water. I poured 1 cup of the mixture into a measuring cup and added 30 drops of purple, 20 drops of red, and 10 drops of green (mixed up quite brown.)
Poured it over the dry wool quite willy-nilly. Next mixed up 30 drops green and 20 drops yellow. Then I did a cup of 50 drops pink. At this point I poured 4 cups of plain water into the pot and pushed the wool down so that it was completely submerged. I mixed one last cup of 50 drops blue and poured that into the middle. I set the crockpot on high and walked away.
Two hours later all the dye had absorbed and I drained it, allowed it to cool, and hung it the shower to dry overnight. The next day I got set up to blend.
I was kind of surprised it turned out to be mostly reds and burgundies. Here also is some natural grey merino/alpaca fiber and a partial skein of Artful Yarns Shakespeare that I got on deep discount (I love the really intense blue.) For this blend I layered some of the dyed wool, a small amount of the yarn (single ply bulky- came apart very easily), a small amount of the gray (very small- I didn't use the whole amount shown) and more of the dyed wool on top (I tried to get some of the mohair blend into each set so it would be evenly distributed.)
I only did one pass, then gently peeled the fiber off the cards
