This was supposed to be a dark grey to intensive red gradation for a lovely mama in America, who was thinking about it for quite a while.
But for many reasons, the most significant being Dharma sending me wrong shades of ordered dyes (and my working at nights), the red turned out to be more raspberry red than proper intensive, burning red. How often does it happen, to use Oxblood Red dye only for it to turn out delicious but far from bloody raspberry...?
I tried to overdye this part with various mixes of darkest reds (even with additions of black), but the fabric didn`t want to absorb it, so we both decided it`s better to try find it a new home than strip (in which I am not fluent!) and redye it, as it is in fact quite beautiful. Just not for this mama of boys!:)
So, here`s the Smoking Kissy gradation on a new Indio Hemp in size 7:
This wrap has found its home:)
