A few more ?'s

First of all I just want to say a great big thanks to you ladies!  It's great to know that there are so many people will to help answer our (newbies) questions.

So here is the list:

1) I bought some KLO's from a local lady and some more from Jillian's Drawers.  I have noticed some very distinct differences.  Some of them from JD feel very rough (I'm assuming its the detergent that was used).  Will they soften after some washing?

2)As to the differences some (all from local mama) have a white almost silky type tag, while the others have a "natural" coloured much rougher tag.  Are these the same diaper, just different batches/lots?  Could it be a Canada vs. States type thing?

3) Can I dye some of the PF and KLO's?  Or will this effect the absorbency?

4) Are KL1's as good as KLO's?  Are they worth having around?

I was crazy excited and definitely over bought. Now I'm wondering what I will do for the next 6 months...
