This is an alternating sequence of dyecodes and numbers. Each dyecode
is either one or two capital letters, representing a colour of dye.
it is followed by the count of threads of that colour.
If the pattern reflects, there should be a slash between the
letters and number at the pivot points. But if it repeats,
there will be no slash.
This is a series of records separated by semi-colons,
each giving the colour represented by a particular dyecode.
The one or two letters representing the dyecode come first,
followed by an equals sign, followed by the colour as a
hex triplet.
For example, R=FF0000 would define R to be
red.
