Inkwell

A lovely dark blue, like the ink in old-fashioned school desk inkwells.

DMC approximation close to 791 on linen and close to 792 on evenweaves. Because of the intensity of this colour, it may bleed - if in doubt, pre-wash your fabric before using, and try to avoid washing it after it has been stitched.

This colour works well on all available fabrics, with linen giving the brightest results. Lugana, other evenweaves and Aida give noticeably more purple results.
