Bought this yarn as a white sweater for 80 cents at a local thrift store.The yarn is 60% cotton 40% acrylic.I debated whether or not I was going to dye it or not, because of the acrylic. I had a few packets of rit dye sitting in the closet, so I went for it!I used 1 packet of royal blue and 1/2 a packet of dark green. because of the acrylic it turned out looking “heathered” and rustic. I kind of like it, not sure what to knit with it just yet.
