[6:20] Setting up the dyes for the most concentrated cup

After the dilutions are done, remove 1/2 cup of the last sample and set aside. Add 1/2 cup of water to each cup.
Add presoaked yarn (no acid yet)
Add 1 T of white vinegar to each sample - this is high but neon colors take longer to bind to yarn.

There are only a couple of the SMSMS yarn sets left that have all of the fun extras - including the first ever ChemKnits enamel pin! www.etsy.com/shop/chemknitscreations/?etsrc=sdt§ion_id=37643062
Perfect experiment to set the containers outside in the sun to heat set.
I will likely play with them this summer. :D I'm surprised how fast things have been striking at room temperature (in the winter
Love that yak colors, those are the shades I’m usually drawn to.
That yak is sooo awesome.
I DIG the neon on the yak. very cool
Thank you so much! I adore the yak base in just about everything I dye on it!
Those color transfer streaks really are pretty. it really adds a fun touch to the set
I think they're super pretty on the silk, I have no idea if I could do this in person. I haven't seen this much transfer ever.
That Yak (at the 5% DOS) came out absolutely gorgeous. I was drooling all over my cell phone screen!
Tiny correction - it is a 0.5% DOS. I shudder to think how a 5% dos would bleed!
@@ChemKnitsTutorials - Ooops!
My word, who knew I'd like the look of that yak soo much! I really love this video. It would make color mixing so much easier. You can easily see where you might want more of a color. I kind of wish you also had a 1% on the green and yellow, since they are less saturated, although, I think the yellow will still be fairly close since it is so bright.
These types of videos are truly so helpful in understanding how quickly a color may fall off or fall out (like the blue falling out of the purple).
The blues falling out of the purple and green were the most surprising to me! Maybe because those pigments are so minor compared to the pink/yellow? I'm not sure!
Even with the tiny calculation difference, the colors all look great. I actually kind of like the effect it had on the Yak base. They don't look neon, but they are soooo beautiful.
I love how it turned out! The pastel on the yak wasn't so great, but I'm glad I tried it to show!
This was so fun!! 🌈 ❤️
Thank you so much!
Wonderful video!
Thank you very much!
Wonderful video.
Thank you very much!
Neon exhaust really easy especially at lower colour depth.. I dye nothing but neon pastels and they are almost holographic at the lowest depth
I've done super pastel variegated yarn before, but I normally go for brighter colors.
Oh my goodness! These yarns are absolutely beautiful. Thank you for showing up some more of your many talents
You are so welcome!
I was really hoping you would group the colors as gradients. So fun.
I think that those gradient sets are STUNNING, too. And I'd happily dye up some of those for sets. Since the theme was painting rainbows, I figured that someone might be sad if they ended up with a single color. ;)
@@ChemKnitsTutorials oh ya, duh. Multitasking watching & dreaming of yarn while all chaos breaks loose in our work systems 🤪
@@melaniecrochets Normally I do have a debate about grouping by rows or columns, so this wasn't a stretch!
Awesome video! I've learned so much from watching you work. Rather than putting the minis in the multi-pot steamer, could you put the takeout containers in the catering pan with a few inches of water and heat treat them? I have similar containers that I also put in the steamer basket with no issues, but I'm worried about color bleeding and steam in small batches which takes ages when I'm sampling colors. Cheers from Saint Paul, MN!
Great question! I would be hesistant to have the plastic containers sit on the bottom of a pan that is exposed directly to heat but that's just because I'm not sure what would happen. Maybe on top of some crumpled up tin foil so it wouldn't be totally on the bottom? I'm not sure TBH
@@ChemKnitsTutorials I'm going to try it and keep an eye on things. I'll let you know how it works out! If it does work, it'll save a lot of time.
This is gorgeous!!! You have these in a set?
I have one "imperfect" silk set left from this video www.etsy.com/listing/1224639644/imperfect-set-of-6-miniskeins-of-sock but I also have some other rainbow tonal sets in the shop right now. www.etsy.com/shop/chemknitscreations/?etsrc=sdt§ion_id=23809244
Very cool! I wonder what the deal is with blue at the lowest DOS...not only did the purple get pinker and the green - more yellow, even the Frozen at the low DOS had a greenish case (or so it seemed on my monitor!).
That could have been the lighting, I think in person it didn't feel greenish to me. But now that I'm thinking about it... Frozen does have a mix of different of pigments but Dharma's website doesn't say what they are. Bummer! I would have loved to know.
❤
I've already used this information for some other videos coming up!
Carribeann Blue is Wash fast and Jacquard turquoise. There is a difference in the...particle size, but it's all the same pure dye. How do I know? I have all three and I'm set for life. I'm also a foodie.
I haven't looked into the ingredients. I know that Dharma Turquoise is different from Jacquard turquoise. I tend to avoid the dharma one now.
@@ChemKnitsTutorials I didn't know that about, Caribbean Blue!" I get that from Pro Chem. However, True Turquoise, is a live of mine. I feel about it, like you about Frozen Blue.
hello. tell me please. what is the volume of the cups. Thank you
I think they're 16 oz. (Since they're recycled I don't know for sure - but they fit more than 1 cup of liquid)
