was brought up short by the second clause:

What can this mean? I've used black, brown, red, orange, yellow,
green, blue, violet, gray, white, silver, and gold. Break it down any
finer than that, and *every* uncut fabric is a color you've never used
before.
Come to think of it, I see pink as a separate color from red. But you
can't go very far down that road before you are distinguishing cherry
from cerise.
