I could be into this. I've already got some Cascade Fixation and some dye... I've just been looking for a reason and the time. :)

Yes please!

I would like to but I'd have to buy some yarn to dye first! Plus, I don't think I should subject someone else to crappy yarn I've dyed until I practice practice practice! So maybe if you do it again at a later date?
