Tiger Lilly is a natural white base dyed in a low immersion process using a combination of bright rich tangerines and soft muted baby pink streaks pair with beautiful chocolate brown, yellow, and peach speckles. The dye is poured directly into a low immersion water bath, because of this the way the dye flows can vary and create purposeful white and/or lighter patches. Each skein is unique. The color way is repeatable HOWEVER every single skein, regardless of dye lot, will vary in how the colors combine and swirl which is what makes hand dyed yarn so unique and beautiful. The colors swirl in the water for a beautiful color pooling effect.
Please remember that while the colorway is repeatable, skeins can always vary from dye lot to dye lot. If you need more than available in shop to match dye lots, please reach out to me and I can set up a custom order to insure matching dye lots. Please be sure to order as much as you need to insure that dye lots remain the same.
Please keep in mind that every computer/device screen is different and colors may appear different on each device.
Please keep in mind that each yarn base is different and while the same formula is used, each base will absorb and present the dye in different ways.
Although bleeding is very rare, this sometimes occurs in hand dyed yarn. Rest assured that yarn is soaked and rinsed multiple times prior to shipping to insure that any residual bleeding is minimized if any remains at all.
