Notes

I ran out of yarn with about 4 rows remaining on my Glam Shells shawl so I decided to gradient dye another skein to try to match the blue. I really lucked out - although I had just used some leftover dye for the original skein and wasn’t absolutely sure of the color mix, I think this new skein matched really well.

I wound the skein into 8 connected mini skeins and used a mixture of Wilton’s Royal Blue and McCormick’s Neon Blue, adding a new mini skein to the dyebath about every 5-6 minutes. I did add more color to the dyebath a couple of times to get the colors I was aiming for.

Ended up using most of the palest color to finish up the shawl.
