Kilims: Some More Red
Here is a really gorgeous color. It is called Apple. It is a formula by Wiarton Wanda of Wandaworks. It is another of her wandering formula. I just love this one SO much. Click on the photo to see all of the merriment and deliciousness. If you need to have the formula check out Wanda's blog here: Wandaworks. It is dyed with Majic Carpet Dyes. Wanda and I checked and I believe that we found it in her archives/older posts in 28 March, 2009. I doubled Wanda's original formula over 1/2 yard of Dorr natural. You will love it. Remember Do NOT STIR...Another great color for Kilims.

The Presto Pot
For those of you that have inquired....here is a photo of the Presto Pot that I have been talking about in my previous posts. It was purchased in the US at Walmart. It was retailing for $19.99, but I think the last time that I saw it the price was up to $21.99. I believe it is called a multi-cooker or kettle cooker. I honestly do not remember exactly.( If anyone knows the exact name please share it with us...thanks). It comes with a glass cover which is not included in this photo and I rarely ever use the cover at all. It also comes with an aluminum basket for deep frying. Some folks use the basket to make spot dyes and or really mottled wool. I rarely use the basket either. The Presto Pot easily holds a 1/2 yard and can hold a yard quite nicely. The temp control allows you to really watch your pot simmer wonderfully.

Kilims: The Colors Continue
This awesome piece of wool called Great Beauty is a Wandering formula by Wanda Kerr -http://wandaworksinwiarton.blogspot.com/
Wanda used Majic Carpet Dyes to produce this amazing dyed piece of wool. Check out her blog and look for wandering formulas. Click on the photo to see just how rich this one is. It is a great color to use in Kilim rugs. Remember these wandering woolens are chameleon in nature - they will change up a bit to fit in with your other wool choices quite well.
