This is the back ramada where I do natural dyeing & these skeins are the result of my first dyeing session of the year, back in May. The fibers included in this batch were wool, for tapestry & rug weaving, alpaca, & silk. All are naturally dyed, some with plant materials harvested from our 5 acres here. I respect all plant life & do not kill any plants during collecting, unless they are parastitic & need to be erradicated. With our 100+ degree temps in the summer, dyeing is best done in the spring & fall.The next dye session is tentatively set for November!
