THE EXOTIC DYES

In this workshop we will dye with exotic dyes that do not grow in our climate including Osage orange, Myrobalan, Sappenwood, Logwood, Cutch, Alkanet, Cochineal, and Henna.

Each attendee will be given pre-mordanted swatches of cotton/linen and silk fabric and wool yarns for testing, recording sheet, printed materials on each dyestuff used, and resources on responsible sourcing, storage and disposal. Swatches from workshop 1 can be brought and tested as well.
