Having seen a friend’s family dyeing, I have been itching to get back in the studio and trial it. The technique is a little complicated, but basically, you use two different colours get dark, medium and light mixes for the two colours.  I decided that I needed to have a go at three colours, so I have a set of three control hues of each colour and then 3 sets of 9 mixes of two colours – they look like this when photo’d (better colours in reality):

Scarlet and lemon with the control reds at the bottom and lemons down the right

Lemon and turquoise  with turquoise control colurs on the right

and finally scarlet and turquoise
