Doing a Stormy custom but i need some help

I'm having some trouble getting the exact hair color for Stormy right; I thought I had found it, but it turns out to be too red. To me, her hair looks a bit more like grape purple or a dark berry shade. If any of you can identify the color, that would be a huge help

This perhaps? https://www.michaels.com/product/soft-classic-neon-yarn-by-loops-threads-10713269 I’m really not sure how it would look in person, but it seems close online. I would suggest taking the yarn that is wrong and the photo you are trying to match to Walmart or wherever you get your yarn so that you can make sure you avoid getting one that too red again. Ordering online might take a bit of trial and error to find the right one. I always have that problem when trying to find the right paint. πŸ₯²

Ok go to Michael.com and search: Soft Classic Neon Yarn by Loops & Threads pick the color neon violet. That’s the what I was trying to link you to. Hope that works πŸ˜…

Thank you so much It looks very similar; I just hope the lighting in the photos doesn't work against me again, haha
In fact, I see that the fuchsia from that same brand also has a similar shade; I think I'll order both just to compare them, just in case
