> 24 hourThe pictures show Hot Fuchia but it comes with Fire Red. Not the same thing. The product itself is great I will continue to use the dyes, but I want the colors shown, not whatever.

> 24 hourI am a wool snob and have been for 65+ yrs. other fibers dont please me. The smell of wet wool is one of my favorites. Natural dyeing began the odyssey, but the color range is limited and mordants are, well - dangerous. Acid dyes for wool are magnificent and Jacquard are tried and true. Predictable. Repeatable. Luscious colors. Nuff said.

> 24 hourThis is a great kit. Citric acid is highly preferable to vinegar in my opinion. Unless you like your kitchen smelling like salad! I needed black dye to make olive drab. I’m glad that I got the set though. Not only did it arrive in time, which is what mattered, the other primaries gave me a finished product far better than had I gone with either just “olive” jacquard dye or even adding the black. Adding a touch of yellow and blue can make all the difference.

> 24 hourI have made a color gradiation of 66 hues from yellow thru blue to red using GreenerShades dye with silk. I tried to repeat in wool with this Jacquard kit. I was skeptical since the blue color name was turquoise, but Jacquard lists it on its website as a primary. Knowing that dyes dont necessarily color true, I took a chance. The 11 shades of yellow through blue made a gorgeous array of greens and turquoise. I should have known that turquoise had enough yellow in it that, when mixed dropwise with red, would make a lovely array of browns. I now have a beautiful afghan in those well-known rainbow colors of red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise and brown.

> 24 hourMy assortment arrived with Fire Red dye instead of the Hot Fuchsia pictured on Amazon’s product photograph (the other three dyes were correct). This is a problem since Hot Fuchsia is required to mix many of the colors shown on the Jacquard color mixing wheel. I suppose I will have to separately purchase Hot Fuchsia dye (if it ever becomes available on Amazon) if I am to get any use out of this dye set.
