Dyeing on the first day of the school holidays

It’s the first day of the school summer holiday.  My son would like to do some spinning during the holidays.  To get started we dyed – using artificial food dyes and vinegar – some fleece.  When it’s dry we’ll card it up ready for spinning.  (This is the first time I’ve dyed fleece using acid dyes so it was a great learning experience for me too).
