Just a word of advice from someone who normally plays fast & loose with dye lots … if you are doing a solid color project buy enough of the same dye lot to finish your project!!!<\/p>\n
For those of you who are like me and don’t necessarily pay attention to your dye lots, this post is for you.<\/p>\n
I never really pay too much attention to dye lot. Granted I do try to buy enough of the same dye lot to finish a project. But I usually say, if it looks the same then the dye lot isn’t too important. That can be horribly wrong.<\/p>\n
The attached picture is Lily Sugar ‘n Cream Soft Violet. They are both the same color, just different dye lots. It is just a very graphic showing of how different dye lots can be. In this case, the fact that they are different colors is fine. I actually wanted 3 different colors of purple for my project. But if I was making something that required a consistent color – I would be in deep weeds!<\/p>\n
Here is a link to the pot holders I am making. 3 strand pot holder<\/a>. As you can see, dye lot isn’t important in this case.<\/p>\n Just a word of advice from someone who normally plays fast & loose with dye lots … if you are doing a solid color project buy enough of the same dye lot to finish your project!!!<\/p>\n
