Let's dye a sock blank with Wilton Color Mist Sprays! My goal was to lightly apply dye in an asymmetric pattern to create a unique set of sock yarns.
The yarn base in this video is a stroll fingering sock blank http://shrsl.com/o7lp (KnitPicks Affiliate Link). The sock blank is knit with two 50 g balls of 75% superwash merino/ 25% nylon fingering weight yarn so you can dye identical colorways.
