Salty Kool-aid

I soaked this sock blank in vinegar water before using a salt shaker filled with a salt/kool-aid mixture onto the blank. The salt was supposed to keep the kool-aid from streaking and running all over the sock. I was hoping for slightly speckled yarn but didn’t get the result I was looking for. What I did get was a much more muted colorway than usual. Pattern: Basic Ribbed Socks, by Kate Atherley with Fish Lip Kiss Heels Yarn: Knit Picks Bare Stroll Blank Single Strand Colorway: Salty Kool-aid Needle Size: US Size 1 They're fine and someone in the family will love them.
