    dyed my wool wristies

    I got a set of these from the PIF thread and love them. This is what they did look like:



    This is what they look like now.



    I used the instructions from this site using kool aid and it worked great.

    PIF thread means what? Have a link handy? I have long arms and my coats/gloves never seem to meet well in the middle.

    Are they as delicious as they are good-looking?

    Also, how do you find wristies working with gloves? I usually wear a pair of Mechanix gloves when I'm out camping and it's cold - think they'd go over a pair of these?
    I used to be a somebody, now I just camp.

    $10 and all the secrets to the world are yours. Honestly, the best $ you can spend. More questions, more answers, more knowledge.

    I'm surprised that he can get to this one. Figured it would have been moved to the donating member clothing section....

    Dyed my wristies last year. They were supposed to be brown, came out almost black. No complaints as they look better than the white. Will try and get some pics up over the weekend, meaning Sunday, at best.....RR
