In caning, I use a lot of Skinner blends. Colour shading is a huge part of making great picture canes and also in adding interest to projects using your blends. A simple tweak to your blend adds a neat stepped effect with Claire Wallis trick. You could use this as the base layer for a larger project or a simple cover, as in the photo, for a bangle.
Anytime where you stack your blend pieces, as in this tutorial, don’t forget you could add thin layers of other colours or even whole other blends.
