So I pulled out all the avocado pits and the skins and put them in a pot to try again. This is before the water was heated numerous times during about 3 days. There are about 10 pits and fewer skins.
This is the result. Frankly it doesn't look much darker.
Okay, truth be told I did have an intended use for the wool. I was hoping to get it close to skin color.
There is a little pink in the skin but need for it to be beige too.
Perhaps I should try putting the wool back in the pot with the remaining avocado juice but this time with a tooth pick of light pink in the pot. I'm thinking about hooking the 3 Cousins design in April with Cindy Irwin. But that is about 5 months away and who knows how many times I'll change my mind about project by that time.
