Need some help. A recent magazine article was about Kool aid dying and said how he was able to get an olive color. I know that someone on this list also was able to dye olive with kool ade. Kindly let me know, if you can, which magazine and what the olive recipe is. Thanks. Joyce


Joyce...

The article is in the Dec 2004 issue of Fly Fisherman.

To get one of the popular olive shades, make up a green (Lime Green or Lemon-Lime) batch first and have the red (Raspberry or Strawberry) in a separate container. Then, just add a splash of red at a time to achieve the color you want. To get a nice clean olive, dye the material first in green and then in a more diluted red shade the second time. Before dying your material, first check the shade with a white paper towel.
