Classic crackle, not the speediest weave but worth the effort I think.

Pots and pans , or my cauldron 🧙🏻‍♀️
Although I’d love to be using this set up for my dyeing in reality it’s a selection of pots and pans in a well ventilated kitchen, although I do wear the hat quite often!
As for record keeping I’m usually a OOAK dyer, enough said!

Jumping into #naturaldyejuly again for Leaves and Roots today with my first eco print that started my natural dye obsession.
I’ve missed a few posts after being knocked for six with ‘the plague’ and I’m not even going to attempt to catch up!

Day 11 of #naturaldyejuly
With all the amazing greens in nature you would expect that it would be an easy colour for the natural dyer to achieve , but it’s not as straightforward as it might seem, for the clearest, light and wash fast green you can’t beat weld with a dip in indigo. 💛💙💚

Day 10 of #naturaldyejuly and today is silk.
Silk and natural dyes are the perfect partners, here used in bundle dyeing and eco printing.
I also love to use silk blend yarns in my weaving as in this silk and nettle blend dyed with madder.

This eco printed scarf represents my garden, each leaf collected as I wandered around on a beautiful crisp autumn morning. I wore it the day I married my sweetheart and it will be treasured for ever. 💞

Day 6 #naturaldyejuly Messed Up
I was originally aiming for a teal colour for this merino/ cashmere blend using myrobalan as a pre mordant before dipping in the indigo vat,the outcome was not what I had imagined, probably due to some rather sloppy scouring and to top it all I had forgotten to put ties on the skein 😭. A couple of hours detangling and over dyeing saved the day.
Day 7 Cotton- isn’t really my thing.

Day 4 and it’s Favourite Dye ~~~ I’m really torn on this one, how can you have a favourite! But I’m going to have to go with indigo, the magic moment when green turns to blue in oxidation and that it combines perfectly with my other favourite madder. 💫💙✨🌿

Day 3 #naturaldyejuly and First Dye Used is the prompt for today.
I came to natural dyeing through eco printing and soon realised what a versatile and reliable dye source the humble onion skin is and with the use of modifiers so many colours can be achieved.

Why Natural Dye?
Natural, earth friendly, non toxic, sustainable, the beauty of natural dyes is not only in their eco credentials but the unique and varied colour palette, the depth and tones, living colour.
