Natural Dyeing Workshop

In this workshop we’ll explore a variety of natural dyes: some wild ones like goldenrod, some that you can grow in your gardens like madder and onion, and one or two that are a little more exotic (insect dyes anyone?).

Prin has been growing dye plants and dyeing her yarn and wool for spinning for more than 15 years, and is passionate about teaching others to develop these skills and relationships with plants and their craft.

Come join us, and learn an ancient craft, in good company.  We’ll practice immersion dyeing with an alum mordant, which works well for all protein fibers.  You’ll leave with a bundle of colorful skeins, a new skill, and inspiration for a winter's worth of knitting and a summer's worth of gardening.

Limited to 8 participants.

Cost: $100
