Definitions for "Dye Lot"
Keywords:  bolt, yardage, lot, fabric, quantity
Refers to color variation between different manufacturing runs of fabric.
Bolts of the same fabric pattern that were manufactured at the same time. Occasionally “dye lots” may vary slightly which is the reason for ordering a cutting from the specific bolt of fabric that you will receive.
Because fabrics are dyed in varying quantities of yardage, consistency of color will vary. Therefore there will be differences in color from bolt to bolt.
