Note: Mondim's colors are evolving! Those whose name begins with the letter A correspond to the old solid colors dyed on an ecru base whose number began with 100. The old heathered colors that were numbered in 300 are grouped in the C range. As for the colors that begin with the letter B, this is an intermediate category, dyed on a heathered base that is less dark than that of the C's.
