those observant eyes will note that the lacy sample is much darker. 4 dips and had i been less impatient i would have ended with Kon (紺 ) or what we understand for indigo blue #191F45
these other samples are an insanely expensive cotton tulle used in bobbin lace. what for i don't know, lace makers please chime in!
i bought 20 cms, but being wide i have enough for my small scale work. i bought it foreseeing the summer blues :)
