No experience necessaryIn this workshop, we’ll explore working with Indigo blue and the mordant dyes madder red and weld yellow.
We will layer these three primary color dyes on top of each other in order to create MANY different tones on a single piece of fabric - Grass green, plum, maroon, forest green, oranges and auburns.
All materials and supplies are provided. You’ll leave with at least two small square scarves dyed in your choice of color and pattern.
Pattern is my speciality and I’ll be sharing the following base-folds which can be combined and modified to create infinite repeat graphics
• STRIPE - fat lines, skinny lines, pinstripes and gingham and plaid looks all originate from this one simple fold.
• GRID - ideal for lattices, zigzags and repeating dots or Moroccan tile looks.
• KIKKO - a hexagonal tessellation
• WEDGE - a radial fold perfect as a base for star and floral shapes
This is a good-times introduction to a range of natural dye plants and processes!
