What Uncontrollable Factors Influence the Color Outcome?
The dyeing process, especially the Hand-Dyeing one, is influenced by many uncontrollable factors. Among the most important of these factors we need to mention: • the shade of the raw material/ cotton – depends upon the respective harvest in a rainy or dry year. • the quality of the cotton – there can be differences in quality between different harvests of the same type of cotton. • what the weather is like while the respective dye-lot is being made – a rainier day will make the color different from the one achieved on a sunny day. • the temperature outside (see above).
