New life for an ugly yarn

This is a hank of Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock Multi in the Somerset colorway. I loved the color in the hank ...


But hate the way it looks knit up.




Four packages of grape koolaid later, I have this ...


I'm not quite sure about the pattern (one I made up), but I am LOVING the yarn. I had never kool-aid dyed before, but it was super simple, and the results are just amazing.

Now if I can only just decide on a pattern.
