Yes Loris, I know should have kept following the 'keep everything constant' mantra. I think it applies to almost all the processes as well not only for cyanotype. But im either such a lazybone or just enjoy and thrive in unpredictable results. It for me, and many others im sure, makes this creative exercises PLAY.
Its sunny again here. I hope its the same for you and the rest of the good people here on the list!

Happy for you Ding!
I work that way since day #1, according to what I had read in Christopher
James' book... After a little experience, I realized it's indeed the best
workflow for cyanotype.
Regards,
Loris.

It was then that i remembered Loris' advice on printing bone dry that i used
the hair dryer and went a little more careful in keeping things at a
constant. Im working under time (and supplies running short) pressure so you
can imagine how relieved i was when the problem went away. Again, I thank
the list for the rescue and specially Loris for this one!!!
p.s. For European list members The indian paper i found gave me the deepest
blue and very wide tonal range i have experienced with trad cyanotype almost
like what i get with cyanotype 2. And bonus is i dont even have to
acidify!!! code is 'SP3 2W 3. pochete de papier indien blanc. pur chiffon'.
