I was asked to dye this wrap by one lovely mama who really knew what she wanted-and chose the most beautiful, but difficult colours:)
Teal and Purple-both dark, rich and intensive-that`s a challenge!
I composed this special Purple out of Marine Violet, Deep Purple and Cobalt Blue-the idea was to make it rich but not too pinky, and purples tend to turn pinkish sometimes...
Teal was just teal, and as it turned out, one dose was not enough-the linen in the wrap (Indio Ice) drank it quite vigorously. So the teal part had be re-dyed-with Teal again, just to make it deeper.
This was version 1, with a different name then...
And this is how it looks now-a bit darker on the teal side:
