I made this jacket using my own pattern. It is a cotton / linen mix, which i dyed a smokey grey green colour. It is lined in the same fabric, and reversable.
The dress/ t shirt undernieth is also one I made and dyed in the same dye bath.. the colour was different because of the pure cotton in the embroidery and poly mix of the dress which didnt really take the dye.

That is quite an amazing effect of the dye due to different fabric! :-)

That was a commercial dye .. it was an old one that i bought in a second hand store. i think you would get a similar result mixing grey and blue/ green together, and watering it down…
