EPiC Multitone yarn are 99 natural dimensionally shaded colors plus Natural, Anthracite, and Non-color for a total of 102 units. These excite the eye when any single Multitone color is multistranded into a larger individual color or to see mixtures of Multitones merge into enhanced colors. EPiC Multitones were inspired by the dimension and clarity MAB found in vegetally-dyed fibres, historic textiles, and rugs. She developed a comprehensive color system whereby in a single organic dye process, each color flows into its multiple tones. Multitones effectively display natural shading while functioning as single colors, millions of which can be created visually by blending strands of individual colors as a painter mixes paints into a unique palette.

EPiC Solidtone yarn is comprised of 99 solid colors plus Bleach White, Coal Black, and Ivory, an additional 102 units which complement the EPiC Multitones. Currently, 12 units are in production: Coal Black, Bleach White, Ivory, 7 fashion tints, plus designer favorites, Brass and Driftwood.
