Since the little dylon tubs have gone off the market, we've had a bit of a search, and Kathryn found these little pearlers for sale on trademe:
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Crafts/Spinning/auction-277287868.htm
You can ask them to set up an auction for however many tubs you want. So far we've tried green and rust - green came out a true forest green, and rust came out bright orange like a road cone! So pretty bluddy good compared to other retail dyes I've tried.. They're protein dyes - so great for wool & silk, poose for linen.
Happy dyeing! :)

Hi Krystal.
Nice to see that there is something on the market to use.
Just wondering if used the dyes on Blankets or on Knitting type wool.

I've been using them for blankets so far.
They're a powdery dye like the little dylon tins.

Awesome! Will you have them at NAAMA? I'd be interested in the forest green for wool if you have plenty?
Thanks,
Lizzi
