Have not had time to use the Greener Shades

"I don't have a review to offer because I have been busy with other priorities. I am glad I got the product and am hoping to get to the project in the Fall 2021. I would like to write a review at that time."

Jeanne P. (4/5)

"The dyes have been easy to use and vibrant colors"

Lynda B. (4/5)

The colors turned out very

"The colors turned out very nice. They were bright and vibrant. I was especially surprised that the black dye really made a black color, not a blue or purple. I dyed my wool in an old (not for food) crock pot. I also used vinegar not the citric acid that came with the kit."
