kool

What is the difference between these two balls of Rowan Kidsilk Haze?

Two packets of grape flavour KoolAid. I got two balls of that painfully insipid pink in a stash swap because, well, it's Kidsilk Haze which is one of the very first cult yarns with which I became acquainted so I can't pass the stuff up. And 48 cents (plus tax) of KoolAid really helped it along. I like the way that the silk didn't take the dye as much as the mohair.

Only problem is, cult yarn or not, I don't really like the stuff. I'm going to give it back to the original owner in its new form and see if she wants to knit with it.
