Marbelizing three ways- what do you think ?

I find it increasingly difficult to find bleeders when I buy wool.
I thought maybe trying a new way to marbleize would help, but I wanted to make a comparison. I remained consistent in my colour sand varied how I heated them.

Here are the colours. The green was a very reluctant giver. I might be driven to making a potato starch paste with dye in it to paint streaked of undissolved dye on to create merriment if this non bleeding continues..... ( leave it to me to be dissatisfied with something anyone else would long for - colour fastness ! )
