All our colorways are created in small dyepots containing only 3- 5 skeins each.  While we use the same dyes to color each lot of a particular colorway, we cannot guarantee a perfect match from one batch to another, nor do we number them.  Part of the beauty of hand dyed yarn is the uniqueness of each skein, similar but not equal.  Since I do not measure the dye some batches are darker or lighter than others.
