I finished knitting this gilet by hand recently. It was a pattern in a kit I bought so I thought I would knit it in some 2/10s shetland coned yarn which was a yucky beige colour so I dyed these colours in a slow cooker. Instructions for dying in a slow cooker can be found on the internet via Google.
I can only dye about 75 grams at a time in the slow cooker but that was alright for this project and I just worked out the stripes according to the colours I had dyed.
It all worked out nicely and it fits well and I think it will be a useful garment.
