Kilims: Red Orange
Here is a wonderfully rich red orange. It is called "Bittersweet". It is yet another color by Susan Quicksall from her dye book Dying for Color. Check out her website here. This piece was dyed using Prochem dyes over 1/2 yard of Dorr natural in a Presto Pot (also called Kitchen Kettle) with only enough water to cover the wool with little to NO stirring. Look at those amazing variations in value. This is a really great color for a Kilim or your next project. Click on the photo to see this spectacular red orange.
