Hi Anita, I've been following your thread. After you've let the yarn cool down, wash it again in hot water with a little detergent. I find that those two combinations will cause any remaining dye to come out. Don't have it happen in warm water with not soap. I find turquoise and reds need more vinegar or citric acid than the mfgs usually call for. Gail White

Now it's in the dye pot with white vinegar simmering and there doesn't seem to be any color bleeding out. Do you think that means I've finally got the stuff to stop bleeding or is the solution not doing anything? Man - how do I get into these messes? This was Landscapes dye no vinegar needed - I usually use G & K washfast - and will from now on, for sure. > Anita in cold but sunny NH, USA To stop mail temporarily mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: set nomail To restore send: set mail
