ROY G. BIV is nearing an end with indigo

   Here’s something I wasn’t prepared for…different shades of indigo as I continue my rainbow-themed blog posts I have been calling “ROY G. BIV.” 

   I had a bit of difficulty finding indigo beads for today’s creation and blog post. Each time I grabbed a bead I felt like it would be classified as blue or purple or violet. And, these pieces I made ended up being more blue than they needed to be, I think. I used my phone to look online for shades of indigo and thought it appeared dark blue. But in looking at the same Wikipedia page on my laptop I found it to be more of a dark purple.

   I decided to stick with my first creations for this blog post. But I have included web links for information on the colors of the rainbow and the color indigo.
