Brown dye

[crochetdiva]

I have tried coffee and tea to dye the wool rovings...and they come out a pretty caramel color. But I am wanting a darker, chocolate brown. How do I do that? Is there a way withought using RIT dye?

i've tried wilton's before... kinda got a burnt orange color. then was told that the 'blue' part of the dye takes longer to adhere and had i left it in longer, it would've turned brown....
haven't tried again, though :shrug
