Black Cherry on Tort

 

 

 

 

Four packs of black cherry Kool-Aid ....

 

... plus two skeins of tort yarn in the dye pot.

The yarn is not as red as expected, it's red but muted, almost pinkish.

 

The bottom red yarn looks more like the color in the dye pot but this skein is cherry and strawberry Kool-Aid dyed on white yarn.    Is the black cherry not bright enough or the tort yarn mutes the red color?
