Sunset
Color variation in naturally dyed yarn
Sunset is a reddish ochre hue made from combining Madder, Fustic & a touch of Logwood Gray; you can find out more about these dye extracts on the Natural Colors page.
Notice how the vivid color mutes along the strand of Sunset. This variation is unique and is a discovered beauty of dyeing with natural colors; you're never sure what your going to get until you've gotten it.
You can order this yarn from the Naturally Dyed Yarn department of the Yarn Store, or you can follow the online Natural Dye Workshop to learn how to dye this color yourself.
