Re-Useable Crochet Tampon (Link to Pattern)

My inspiration for it came from this free pattern: CLICK HERE
I wonder how the green will be. I've used red cotton yarn for tying onto garlic cloves for yeast infections and I end up with pink on my toilet paper, which concerns me until I realize I just pulled out a garlic that was in overnight.
