I made some lime green earrings for a friend of mine. She has bright red hair too. One day, I was in Wal-Mart buying yarn I didn't need, and I saw this color. "I bet she'd love this," I thought as I sent her a pic. "MAKE ME ONE!" She text back. Lol. And here we go. 100% acrylic, machine washable and dryable as long as you put it in a couple inverted pillowcases. $50
