They're all riffs on a grey/brown/purple theme. From top to bottom: copper mordant, tin mordant, alum mordant. The streakiness I whined about yesterday has almost entirely disappeared, thank heavens!
These are all beautiful, subtle, not-quite-neutral colors, just not as dark as I'd like. However, in my work, I often need neutrals to play up more intense colors, so these will definitely find homes.
Next time I try alkanet, it'll be at a much higher dye-to-goods ratio!

Subtle and beautiful, Sandra! Say, I didn't realize you were in the Bay Area! I used to live in The City before moving to Humboldt County. Small world!
Hugs.
gorgeous skeins Sandra!
on my monitor, they look sort of mauve. they will surely help some other colors pop!
Do you have enough to try a quick rinse in ammonia?
