ACID DYES FROM PROCHEM
suitable for wool, silk, alpaca, mohair, angora and nylon
This range is superceding the old Jacquard acid dyes. While some colours will be identical, others will be a bit different. The most similar Jacquard colour is shown after the colour name in brackets.
Note: The dyes have been swatched onto light cream merino wool. They will be brighter on a white based fibre. I realise that it's difficult to get a good idea from a small swatch like this, so I'll be dyeing some skeins as time allows to give a better idea of the colours.
Brilliant Violet (Purple) Iris (Lilac) Mahogany National Blue ( Sapphire Blue)
Violet Turkey Red (Crimson) Black (Jet Black) Navy (Navy Blue)
Lavender (Perinwinkle) Bright Red (Scarlet) Key Lime (Chartreuse) Buttercream
