You have been awarded The “I Can Be an Asshole When It Comes To Knitting” Badge
In which the recipient is so passionate, opinionated and entirely convinced of his/her own superior knowledge about all things knitting, that he/she may appear pompous, rude, or self-righteous. And I mean this in the nicest possible way. :) melly~
But even better, You've been awarded the “Proselytize Knitting” Badge
you do your "bit to present knitting in a positive light, whilst at the same time avoiding all references to “hipness”, grandmothers, and yoga." Keep up the good work!

I really like the blue/green one!
The pink one is different, but still pretty cool! It's like pink leopard print - you can knit socks for cougars!
Reskein them. You'd be amazed at what reskeining does for yarn barf looking skeins. Ask me how I know :) Just because they are speckled doesn't mean they won't knit up beautifully in fact...you shouldn't get any pooling at all with the way you've layed the dyes on there :) Good job!
I second both of the previous comments! I really like the blue green combo best but the pink one will probably, actually have a more interest pattern to it in the finished item. I'd happily knit with either of those hanks of yarn. I have done a lot of Koolaid dying and you will be pleasantly surprised at how a spotty "ugly duckling" like that pink skein will knit up into a gorgeous "swan".
Hmmm. What does reskein mean?
You're a funny girl. No talking? Good darn thing for blogs, eh????
Well- if you gift a girl a hank of pink dalmation yarn, does she have to knit a sweater for a dog? I think they loook good, but once they are either re-skeinedo or caked they will look different.
If was good to talk with you today. Sorry it was so painful. g
Wait! What? You can DYE with Wilton paste? I do not have to use the very scary read-the-instructions-or-you-might-DIE RID dye?
Yes, can you tell i have never dyed anything before?
