Does anyone know a source for Gaywool starter kits? Kits that have more than four colors, in small packets, would be ideal. I've found a few sources that sell jars, but I don't want to spend $50.

Thanks in advance,

I bought my gaywool from my lys Vulcan's Rest (http://www.vulcan.mbweb.com/) They had bigger jars and smaller ones. Perhaps you could get some of the smaller jars.

I also recently purchased Jaquard Dye from Dharma Trading Co. http://www.dharmatrading.com/ I bought the 1/2 oz jars of 4 colors - about 4 - 6 dollars each. I also was able to buy nice plastic containers, gloves and other accessories. Very reasonably priced.

Thanks for the links. I'm curious can all of these dyes be safely mixed with each other: jaquard, gaywool and lanaset? Or would this be courting a chemical disaster?

PS. The singles on our blog are fabulous! I've been dying (no pun intended) to learn how to do that.
