Kuten tied\u00e4tte niin meik\u00e4l\u00e4isen projektit saattavat joskus ottaa pitk\u00e4nkin aikaa. En edes uskalla arvailla t\u00e4ll\u00e4 hetkell\u00e4 kesken olevien k\u00e4sit\u00f6iden ja tuunausten m\u00e4\u00e4r\u00e4\u00e4. Tied\u00e4n vain ett\u00e4 niit\u00e4 on nurkat t\u00e4ynn\u00e4 ja uutta pukkaa jatkuvasti (mist\u00e4 niit\u00e4 oikein tulee?)<\/strong><\/span>. V\u00e4lill\u00e4 p\u00e4\u00e4t\u00e4n tarmokkaasti purkaa sumaa ennen uusien ilmestymist\u00e4. Huonolla menestyksell\u00e4. Yritet\u00e4\u00e4n kuitenkin taas n\u00e4iden talvisempien kanssa. Viime maaliskuussa l\u00f6ysin kirppikselt\u00e4 pehmoisen merinovillaisen neuleen. Puseron malli on kuitenkin v\u00e4h\u00e4n liian ys\u00e4ri makuuni joten se vaatii v\u00e4h\u00e4n fiksausta. H\u00e4t\u00e4isen\u00e4 ehdin jo ratkoa hihat irti ennenkuin \u00e4lysin ottaa “Ennen”-valokuvan. Tarkoitus olisi kaventaa hihoja sek\u00e4 miehustaa istuvammaksi.<\/p>\n

Nyt olen t\u00e4ss\u00e4 puoli vuotta yritt\u00e4nyt p\u00e4\u00e4tt\u00e4\u00e4 ett\u00e4 mill\u00e4 v\u00e4rill\u00e4 v\u00e4rj\u00e4isin puseron. Ajattelin testata v\u00e4rj\u00e4\u00e4miseen Kool Aid-mehuja<\/a>. En osaa p\u00e4\u00e4tt\u00e4\u00e4 ottaisinko Ice Blue Raspberry Lemonaden vai Blue Moon Berryn<\/a> (katsokaa miten herkullisia v\u00e4rej\u00e4!!)<\/strong><\/span>. Vai pit\u00e4isik\u00f6 sittenkin heitt\u00e4yty\u00e4 villimm\u00e4ksi ja valita Lemon Lime. Puseron alkuper\u00e4inen kellert\u00e4v\u00e4 s\u00e4vy sek\u00e4 k\u00e4ytetyn mehun m\u00e4\u00e4r\u00e4 vaikuttavat lopulliseen v\u00e4riin joten se tulee olemaan jokatapauksessa pieni yll\u00e4tys. Haaveilen kylm\u00e4st\u00e4 j\u00e4\u00e4nsinisest\u00e4 tai aquan v\u00e4risest\u00e4. Neuleen kellastuneen keltainen pohjas\u00e4vy kuitenkin luultavasti taittaa s\u00e4vy\u00e4 vihert\u00e4v\u00e4\u00e4n p\u00e4in. Olen perehtynyt mehuilla v\u00e4rj\u00e4\u00e4miseen netin ohjeita lukemalla, mutta ottaisin mielell\u00e4ni kaikki mahdolliset vinkit niilt\u00e4 jotka ovat Kool Aid-mehuilla aiemmin v\u00e4rj\u00e4nneet. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

IN ENGLISH<\/strong><\/span>
\nAs you know, my projects might sometimes take quite long time before they’re finished. I don’t even dare to guess how many unfisnished projects and revamps I got at the moment. I just know they fill every corner and keep multiplying (where are they coming from?)<\/strong><\/span>. Every now and then I decide to clear up some room before new projects appear. Failing miserably. But let’s try again with these more wintery projects. Last March I found this lovely soft merino wool sweater from flea market. Shape of the sweater is a bit too nineties for me so it needs some fixing. I already ripped the sleeves of before I realized I have to take “Before”-photo. My plan is to take in from sleeves and bodice to make it more figure hugging.<\/p>\n

Last six months I have been trying to decide what colour to dye it with. I was planning on going with Kool Aid-juice<\/a> for it.I can’t decide if I should choose Ice Blue Raspberry Lemonade or Blue Moon Berry<\/a> (look how delicious colours!!)<\/strong><\/span>. Or should I go wild and pick Lemon Lime. Original yellowish shade and the amount the juice will affect on the final colour, so it will be a bit of a surprise anyway. I am hoping to get cold ice blue or aqua. But yellow base will probably turn it little towards green. I have read about dying with Kool Aid from the interweb, but I’d love to get all the best tips and advice from those who have used Kool Aid for dying wool. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
