Dyeing Experiment, Part II
Jun. 28th, 2008 11:21 amWell, yesterday I ironed my new ribbon and I was pretty pleased. Here is the result:
The background is a soft blue and the flocking is a deeper wedgwood blue. The less differentiated swatch was my sample--I realized I didn't get enough contrast with that, so I checked the color set on my full length several times until I got the look I wanted (I'd pull it out and dunk it in a rinse bucket). Overall, a pretty good effort, though I have no idea what I was dyeing, in terms of content (except that it was synthetic something or other).
