Aaron's Satchel

I've begun knitting Aaron's Satchel. It is from my very first hand spun yarn. The yarn is not consistent but it should felt just fine. Wish I could remember what all I did to dye the variegated yarn. I know I first dyed it orange with Kool-Aid but then I used some other dyes, maybe Wilton's Leaf Green or Wilton's Kelly Green. Does the Wilton Greens split? I know the black does. Anyways, it started out like this.


After over-dyeing, it looks like this.







And the beginning of the satchel.
