Hello again! I have a rod on the wrapper want to get done before this month earlier the better. It is for a friend of mine kid, I am stuck on how to get the colors of theads to fade to the next color, My ? is what is the count of the threads to fade it to the next, example.. 1 blue, 2 red.... until it looks like it is faded to the next color threads. I have no more internet at my home, so if I can get the answer in the next hour or so that would be great and very appreciated, Thank you.

Tom,

I wrote Lorenzo a detailed set of instructions and lots of examples, but I can't post it here because the forum compresses extra spacing making my instructions unintelligible. I hope it is acceptable to direct Lorenzo to an offsite PDF file where I can post the instructions and examples with the correct formatting.
