Default How to kill a gansy

Easy Come, easy go! After all it is just Fisherman's wool, and not some
expensive luxury fiber : D I knit for fun and not for pence. It gives me
an excuse to knit another one.

I am wearing it now. The day is unseasonably cool, and my office is cold.
It is the warmest sweater I own, even if it does look like it has dark
perspiration stains under the arms. Besides, after a few days of fishing,
and getting smeared with fish gore, nobody will notice the slightly darker
areas under the arms.

Dye it!

Who would have thunk, that dying a garment could be that much harder

than
dying skeins of yarn?

My condolences. I recently killed a favorite blouse I was trying to
save with a too hasty attempt at tea dying. On the good side, it was to
be practice for dying a coffee-stained linen content Ralph Lauren
sweater that I love. I will eventually dye the sweater, but not with tea.
