Three new shades in our natural dye extract range
Written by [email protected] on March 5, 2008 in Natural Dye Extracts
Our natural dye extract range is soon to be enlarged by three new shades: Mulberry, Cochineal and Valonia Oak. They will be up on the website as soon as they arrive in a day or two. Meanwhile here are a few photographs of my samples and experiments. Please feel free to leave any comments below.
A Selection of silk and wool threads dyed with Mulberry Dye Extract. Underneath is a silk hanky which will be exciting to spin and at the top is a pair of socks that I cold mordanted with alum and then painted with mulberry and cochineal extracts.
Sock Dyeing in progress. You can see here that the Mulberry will dye to quite a dark shade.
