Pigments

 Pigments is an evolving collection of colours inspired by historical pigments. 

​All colours use the same base of 12.5% Llama, 12,5% Sari Silk, 12.5% Mulberry Silk and 62.5% Merino. 

This gives a base that soft, with a lovely shine, but an amazing texture from the sari silk.

The colour range available won't be permanent, in part because I don't have infinite storage space, but also because offering permanent  collections of blends has got harder and harder. Supply chains are still erratic, and to often I've ended up being left with the impossibility of restocking because there's no stock left of a component. Instead the selection available will keep changing. After a period of time a colour may reappear, however Sari Silk is a really variable beast because it's a recycled fibre, so any new batch will most definitely not be in the same "dye lot". 
​
Now language pedants... I know that some of these aren't technically Pigments... but I need a nice short name to refer to this collection, and it's the one that closest fits the bill of what I'm trying to do with this colour theme.
