    Hi everyone! On this special hour-long edition of the Midweek Ramble, I take you on a journey of transformation as I share my process behind over-dyeing two of my own hand-knit sweaters. It’s my first time doing this and the anxiety is real, however the journey and the outcome is well worth the time it takes to see it through. I so hope you join me for this. ❤

    • @angeh9995
      @angeh9995 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for this long video about over-dyeing garments. I have two cashmere sweaters I’m pondering over as to their colours not being quite right for me. I’ve not dyed anything for 30 years so your two videos have been timely for me, both for the colour theory refresh and dyeing techniques. I’m relieved to know that the anxiety exists for an experienced yarn dyer so I needn’t feel bad about it myself. I’m going to do a bit more research and try with one of them.

    • @Liz.Green789
      @Liz.Green789 ปีที่แล้ว

      That was fascinating. What beautiful results you achieved. I especially love that rich blue. That's my favorite color to wear. Thank you for taking us along with you. We'll done, Tayler.

    • @juliamorrisey5541
      @juliamorrisey5541 ปีที่แล้ว

      Tayler, you mention bringing the water to temp. What is that temp? I know it is not supposed to boil but not sure what it should be.
      Also, can you recommend info for blends and plant fibers? After seizing this I want to try to fix a summer top. The variegated sweater turned out so well it really gives me hope. I do love that blue and myvarigated yarn is in blues so who knows...

    Wow and wow! I would not have believed that you'd get such an overall even colour on the cropped multi- coloured one. Magic!!

  • @yasminebenamrane2923

    Hello! I was going through a kind of anxiety crisis tonight. I took my needles and watched your video. It was soo relaxing and interesting and I just focused on every steps and I just want to thank you for this video and the amazing colors you get but also for all your previous ones and their quality. I learn a lot by looking at them but they also keep my mind calm and focus. Thank you so much!

    • @WOOLNEEDLESHANDS
      @WOOLNEEDLESHANDS  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I’m SO happy that this video provided your mind with some much-needed ease. Thank you so much for watching and for your kind words. ❤❤❤

  • @mundanemornings
    @mundanemornings ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Obsesssseeeddd with the orange one! It's like the perfect autumn leaf.

  • @TrixiaDK
    @TrixiaDK ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Wow ❤. I really love the orange/rust colour. The blue sweater, gives me the idea, that you can knit a sweater in a light tone, and then transfer it to the colour you desired. I don’t think, that there is anyone, that loves knitting in dark colours, such as black.
    Thank you for sharing 🧶

  • @sherylf80021
    @sherylf80021 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Wow! Both sweaters are beautiful. I can’t believe the difference. You would never know the blue sweater started out pink. I admit I liked the variegated sweater as it was but LOVE the result of the over dye and how it toned it down in that respect. I also love the color - I’m partial to autumn colors. Bravo!

  • @suzannecarr5871
    @suzannecarr5871 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    INCREDIBLE!!
    The production of the video was every bit as good as the production of the beautiful over-dyes. Thank you for being so generous with your process - anxiety and all.

  • @kristinm3729
    @kristinm3729 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This has been fascinating to watch - and I say this as a person who has no desire to dye anything! (I'm also a person who spins yarn occasionally who has no interest in watching people talk about spinning :-)) Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I can imagine there will be many people who benefit from this great tutorial.

  • @bjcyak3061
    @bjcyak3061 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Amazing and fascinating!! Thanks for taking us along, Tayler. What incredible results and the glimpse we got of your smile at the very end (with the dark blue sweater) - no words needed. 👏👏Also want to comment on the video overall - very well done, nicely edited and I really like the addition of that background music throughout. ❤

    Wow I’m so amazed at how the orange/brown one turned out! It looks so even now and the splotch in the middle is not even visible anymore, you must be so happy with them now. Well done, very interesting to see!❤

  • @isabellemeunier9486

  • @christinascaduto5943

    Oh my goodness, I love them both. My two favorite colors. I especially like the tonal effect of the speckles on the red one. Nice.

  • @Treasacello
    @Treasacello ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Both came out wonderfully! What a process, though. I was nervous for you, too. I thought I'd like the blue one because peacock blue is just one of those magpie colors for me, but that rust is phenomenal! Thanks for sharing this tense and time consuming production. It was worth the hour to watch and the hours it took to make.

  • @jhuntsman17

    Fabulous results! You’re a magician 😊. Thanks so much for this very interesting video. I loved following the whole process, including your explanation around the colors wheel. I’m not a dyer (yet) but so tempted. And even more tempted after this video, although I know I need to learn quite a bit. Thank you!
    I just regret not seeing your happy face at the end!

    WOW!! Love both sweater colors! So glad you decided to share this video with us. I have a knit sweater I don't wear because a small area pooled, (of course in the front). Your video is just the encouragement I need to give the sweater new life. Thanks for sharing it!

  • @isarose3136
    @isarose3136 ปีที่แล้ว

    Aaaah those turned out GREAT!! I like how the "flashing" on the rust one toned down so it's really not visible, and that dark navy one is just GORGEOUS! Thanks for making a point that doing this slowly is 24 hours (ish) NOT like 2, LOL. That would be me with a splotchy mess. Makes me want to go through the sweaters I have that i don't love the colors of. YAY! Thanks again!

  • @sherryperry67

  • @bethanysikaras3806
    @bethanysikaras3806 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Wow! Both sweaters turned out great! I have three questions: 1) Is there any point in the dyeing process where you can “push the eject button”? Meaning, you really know it will end badly and you want to try and recover what you somewhat had? 2) Would it work to “test dye” a swatch before doing a full garment and would the dye ratio need to be different? 3) Is the dye ratio dependent on size of object being dyed or is color just color? Thanks! This whole process is very fascinating to me, but I would probably be too scared to try it. 😅

    BRAVO!!! Now that's a reality episode. I had to remember to breathe.😊 The new colors r perfect. I really hope ur expectations were met. I luv the new colors. So glad to see all the labor and time involved with just dying. Now I won't complain too much for more $. I can see why many dyers make neutral colors. They aren't brave like u. I didn't realize how labor intensive it is to just get from shearing to hank. Thanks for sharing.

    To paraphrase some important guy from history, I regret that I have but one thumbs-up to give to this video. What a fantastic job! I'm swooning over that orange, and orange isn't even one of my colors. I will admit to being perplexed that there's such a thing as "warm" black and "cool" black. I thought black was just black.
