Default Violet dye

I mixed all my dyes tonight and noticed the voilet looked funny.
All of the other bottles seemed to look the color as labeled, and have the same amount of dye inside. However, the violet bottle wasnt near as full as the other bottles, and it looks yellow-orange in the 2 gal. container.

Is this normal?

Yes.
Violet is a fun color. Wait until you dye with it, and you will be amazed.

Its orange in powder form, it dyes orangeish purple, it seals deep purple. Making the color a complete pain in the patootey to match another part to.
