Leftovers, Step Two

Today the ikat-tied skeins went into a brown dyebath. Here's the look partway through the process:



Since the original wood dye colors were a wide range of values, I don't expect them all to dye to the same dark brown - but I hope they'll get darker than they were at this stage. Time is an important factor.

However, even at this stage, the brown overdye has unified the hues and values greatly, and I know that I'm going to like the end result.
