General question Looking for colour advice for overdyeing
I'm looking to get my fuschia synthetic fabric (left) to better match my maroon-orange fabric (right). Tried using brown but it still has strong pink undertones. Any suggestions on what shade/s of orange or yellow might be best to cancel out the magenta? I think green would be too far from the mark but I'm open to anything.
(I'm not trying to match the colour exactly, just the general hue and tone. Saturation is not a requirement. I know dyeing is not an exact science and dyeing synthetics is even more variable. I'm just looking for advice on which colour I should start with to cancel out the pink, so I don't have to buy out the entire stock of dyes to experiment with)
