A lot of the yarn I buy is purchased online, which means I can wind up opening a package and discovering that the color on my computer monitor really doesn't match the actual color of the yarn. Even if I buy the yarn in person, sometimes the lighting, my mood, or other factors result in my purchasing a yarn and then deciding later on that it's a color or colorway I'm not going to use. In this case, I chose to overdye it with another color.
I live-tweeted this and more photos of the process are on my Flickr page in the Overdye set.
Romi Hill has a nice blog post on how she overdyed a skein of pink yarn with a yellow-gold dye and got gorgeous results: Another good day to dye
