my first dye experience

Been focusing on the scarf over the weekend, a bit slow, 45" for now and another 10" to go.
Feeling a bit bored in the afternoon so i wondered :"hey! let's try out the dyeing!!!", so i took out one ball of wool and tried my luck. Not too bad, i will definately top up the food colouring coming weekend! he he
Here are the pictures taken.
