Kilims: Soft Tawny Brown

 

Here is a soft light tawny brown. It is called Bees Wax. It is yet another color by Susan Quicksall (deqslq@aol.com) from her dye book Dying for Color. 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. Click on the photo to see the interesting tones in this soft brown. Check out the lovely variation in value. This is a lovely warm color for a Kilim or other project.
