ok,  i don't remember who told me to try it,    but they said to use Rit die, like they use on dyeing clothes,   i tried it,  and it turned out very nice,   all that trouble & something so simple to try,   i used Forest dark green,   so who ever it was that said to try it,  i'm not sure, but wasn't it Lou?     thanks         Jerry

Sorry Jerry it wasn't me. How did you do it, a washing michine, big tub, and how much RIT did it take?
