Introduction to plant dyeing

About
The course is a basic course and perfect for those who have not colored before. We start from the very beginning, and go through the most basic things within plant dyeing. Experienced people can of course easily join.You will get an introduction to plant dyeing. We will talk about good dye plants, fibers, preparation for plant dyeing, the dyeing itself & the finishing. We will work with 3 yarn bases.
We dye in two dye baths - birch (which gives green/yellow) and cochineal (which gives red/pink).
