Soft Beat Ikat Scarves #5 and #6: Jewel Tones

What happens when you take the turquoise dye solution you mixed to dye one scarf, dilute it by 2/3, and use it to dye a second scarf?  You get a lovely green scarf, too.  Who knew?  Soft Beat #5 (turquoise) is my standard cotton warp with a silk weft, and Soft Beat #6 (jewel green) is 100% cotton, with big sections of black weft to offset the green weft.  And that's all of the Soft Beat Ikat series, folks!
