I made this! From smoker grey, to grinch green, to fir green!

Knitter aficionados PLEASE DONT flame me for the felting I brought forth on this sweater… it was an unavoidable casualty of an even dye job.
Anyways, I had another crack at dying my discoloured grey-yellow, turned punch-you-in-the face-green sweater, and I’m happy with the results!! I used 1 bottle of royal blue, and about 1/3-1/2 bottle of wine red RIT dye, which made a lovely indigo. Colour theory FTW.

Fantastic! While I loved the other green, I too would be more likely to wear your new color. Great job!
