We Are Not Amused

So I'm plugging away on the second of my nupp socks and I'm starting the heel so I pull out the first sock to count how many rows I did on the heel flap and how many stitches I picked up for the gusset because I couldn't be bothered writing it down and I look at the two socks side by side.
These are both allegedly the same die lot for Lorna's Laces "Vera" but that's hard to believe. They don't even look like the same colorway. There's no green at all in the first sock and it pools in a really unattractive manner. I realize that no two skeins of a hand dyed yarn are going to be exactly the same but I do expect them to have the same colors in them. WTF, Lorna's Laces, how does this happen when they're the same dye lot?
