A couple naturally dyed scarves my sis is working on. These shots are before steaming, so final coloring will be a little different. Details in ALT text.

Tea Time, created by pressing loose leaf tea directly onto the fabric.
The color develops where the leaves sit, giving each piece its own variation.
-
Small batch dye days start long before fabric goes into the pot.
Measuring, batching, and keeping notes are what make it possible to recreate a color — even when working with natural dyes.
This jar is walnut dye. It can produce anything from soft warm browns to deep chocolate tones depending on how the batch is run.
I’ll probably be dyeing with this next weekend.
Do you prefer lighter walnut tones or darker ones?

Kihada.
This yellow comes from wood chips — not a synthetic dye.
Same slow process, small batches, and a lot of testing to get it to this tone.
I love how it sits on Lugana — warm without going neon, soft without going flat.

This scarf is a gift for my uncle, inspired by quartz clusters we saw together backpacking in Cottonwood Canyon in Death Valley. From what I've been reading I think they were formed by intrusive igneous rock forming around xenoliths, and by cooling very slowly forming the incredible quartz crystals we saw, which looked like rings around the darker xenoliths in the weathered rock face we saw. I'm not trained as a geologist though and would love to find more information about the geology of Cottonwood Canyon from someone with some real expertise!
The wool is targhee roving I got at the nor cal ren faire. I spun it on my small cross arm spindle and wove it on a loom I've been borrowing from a friend. It's plain weave set at 8epi. It looked very open on the loom, but fulled into a wonderfully bouncy and dense fabric.
After fulling I scoured the fabric, then used rubber bands to do this shibori inspired dye process. After putting on the rubber bands I gave it a bath in tannins I extracted from an oak gall, then in a bath of cool water with just a tiny bit of dissolved ferrous sulfate. It was so exciting to see the fabric turn grey in a a matter of just a few minutes when I put it in the iron bath!

🍍 International researchers have developed a way to dye clothing using discarded pineapple peel - an approach they say can help upcycle food waste and provide a more sustainable option.

Our all-natural Logwood dye is restocked. I'm absolutely in love with this rich purple hue.

Just a few hours in, and I can already see some color! Walnuts produce a rich brown shade, with darkness depending on the dye-to-fabric ratio. This is when I get really excited!

Here's a peek behind the scenes of my natural dye process. This giant pot is filled with walnuts. Now, we wait and see what develops. I'll keep you updated!

Get it before it's gone! These are the last of the lighter Logwood fabrics I dyed last year. The new batch doesn't have the same light grey-ish purple feel to it, so I'm not sure if I'll be able to make more. Currently in Aida, Lugana, Belfast Linen.

@colinpurrington I didn't know there was a Gall Week! That's so cool. Turns out I took pictures of galls anyway but it hadn't occured to me to put them on inaturalist. Thanks!
This might be of interest to #ink / #InkMaking and #dye / #NaturalDye people-- lots of us are out looking for galls this time of year for tannin reasons.

@Axiom @fiberarts considering I'll soon be regularly getting these things falling on my head & arms for a few months, this is a nice looking reminder of a future use of said plant part.
Mostly though I'll likely be dying fibers for handmade paper not hand spun yarn.
