Just some pictures of the dyeing fun I've been having! There's some procion dyeing and also some wool dyeing (cringe....my hands!). I know I've sworn not to dye wool, but these natural coloured wool interlock pants were in a bag of clothes gifted to me, so I had to 'pimp them' before gifting them to someone else....I mean come on! Natural colour wool.......the temptation was just too great :P And yes - I wore incredibly thick gloves while working with them......but still have slightly raw hands to show for it...sigh.
love the tree!
ReplyDelete*grin* it was a relatively successful experiment in dye painting - now to get some supplies so I can experiment with procion!
ReplyDeleteThey are awesome Mandy -can I get you to make me some :D
ReplyDeleteSome dyed yarn? Sure :) Wool interlock pants....probably not :P
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. Have you ever tried dying wool with food colouring? A friend of mine does it with op-shop balls of wool and they look great.
ReplyDeleteI sure have Bec - in fact, the pants are dyed with food colouring ;) Though my food colouring exploits are limited now, due to a contact allergy to wool :)
