More Dyeing
Posted: August 21, 2013 Filed under: dyeing | Tags: natural dye. indigo Leave a commentNow the weather has picked up again I have continued with the dyeing. Yesterday it was hibiscus. I have never dyed with this before
The liquid after boiling up the flowers was a wonderful deep claret colour. I was worried that I would end up with something very similar to the Brazilwood. However happlily I endded up with a lovely soft pink – exactly what I was aiming for
Today I have got the indigo vat out.
However careful I am I suspect I will be sporting blue fingers by the end of the day
