busy day
several strips of cloth hanging.....in anticipation |
block clamp dipped into walnut dye, quickly removed as i sensed the dye was seeping into the fabric way too fast too much, the string wasn't tight enough!.....but i do like the result, as seen below: |
another experiment with an ironed and folded strip of cotton (already dyed with a black-bean-dye last summer, but the colour has faded)bound with goat's wool, which i assume will also take on the dye; it is half submerged into the acorn-dye
a coin-clamp and a block clamp simmering in the onion-peel/avocado-dye, will check on those tomorrow, am curious to see how they'll turn out:
the young teaching the old new skills! it's pretty fiddly, but the results are fun, you see me wearing a bracelet J made and gave me |
finally a photo of the second knitted and felted blanket hanging to dry in the library |
