That's funny. I seem to get muddy colors with MX all the time when I
don't want them. MX dyes don't use heat. You just need to stir.

I order from Dharma all the time. I am just having trouble reconciling
the heat and agitation most wool-dyeing instructions require, with
what that might do to wool, particularly wool that has already been
knitted up and thefore shrinkage is an issue. Most people seem to be
dyeing yarn.
I like muddy colors though, and can't usually achieve them with
Procion MX dyes, which I have lots of around. I know they are not
officially wool dyes but people seem to use them for wook anyway.
