Dye lot weirdness

These two skeins of yarn are the same colorway.

I'll repeat that: These two skeins of yarn are the same colorway.

I received the skein on the right first. I was a bit perplexed. It is lovely. But the photo on Etsy looks like the skein on the left.

So I contacted the dyer, who said that some people had wanted more green in this colorway, called Rose Garden Shadows, so she had put more green in the second batch she dyed, and less grey overdye. She didn't update the photo on Etsy. She actually offered to take back the skein and overdye it with grey for me. How cool is that? However, I am keeping these both the way they are (I bought the one on the left from some beknighted person on Ravelry who, get this, wanted to SELL IT - how crazy is that??). The dyer suggested I might want to make a shawl, alternating the 2 skeins. It's a thought. For now, I will just pet them and love them (and call them George).
