KoolAideDyed SUCCESS!
Next attempt to KoolAid Dye a hat from a bag of donated yarn. This is made from 4 balls of scraps-3 white and 1 orange. I swear that the second ball of yarn was wool as it seemed like it had some kind of lanolin or something on it. Had no idea the 3rd ball of yarn was wool. Love how it all turned out. I will continue to attempt more Koolaide dye again. :)

Makes me think. Maybe next time, on purpose, I will mix acrylic and wool and then dye to get a striped effect. LOL!

Jana, WAY TO GO. I think this is a beautiful hat, very charming and that orange bit around the edge just "makes" it. High fives. Onwards with the Kool-Aid adventuring! Here are some sites for KoolAid dying if anyone else is interested, wool or natural fibers are generally recommended...but anything is possible:
