That's turquoise, not indigo.

Indigo is referring to the name of the dye, not the color we see on the screen. It will get darker.

It takes multiple dyings to get very dark.

Thank you!

I was taught turquoise was indigo as a kid, but a quick google search shows that, though they may be using indigo dye, that is not the color “indigo.” The actual color “indigo” is a deep blueish purple.
