Dying wool and Felting

I don´t have access to kool aid, so I dyed my yarn with light (meaning aspartame or sucralose, as I used 2 different brands). Soaked wet with water, vinegar, spin cycle of my washer machine, and add the colors. 3 min.for 3 times in my microwave, then rinse with warm water, spin again, and hanged with my clothes, I forgot that it was away from the sunrays, but the colors remain the same. Then I knitted without pattern a purse, and felted it with just cold water, a pair of jeans 2 tennis balls,
and a rough cotton fabrics. It did not stain the natural flap (knitted together), or the fabrics. Here are some pics of my experiment.

From my tower

Here I am, from my private tower, desde mi torreón para todos, I am trying to create some art!!, ME?, wow, sounds nice, if I only could.... just bored of normal stuff, OK, let me explain, I do use them, but not made by me!, as the song, "soy rebelde porque el mundo me ha hecho así", (rebel, the world made me feel like it), so, I am searching very deep in my heart, mind, spirit, and skills, graffiters only paint?, because I want to inspirate in them to .....crochet, toiletries, soaps (súper en rojo y negro), strange shapes, only for open minders. I will post also things that I can sell, at first, then, step by step, dying my own yarns-threads, (my soaps are already directed that way, also my toiletries).......Let us wait what the inspirating fairies can provide me!
