For the love of all natural colors!

Recently, I gave myself permission to master natural dyeing on wool. To learn, to
play, to succeed and to fail...all with grace and humility in the presence of plants that matter.

Some colors we grew and preserved, others gleaned from extracts produced by Botanical Colors, a lovely natural dye company located in Seattle, Washington.

The DK and Worsted Weight, non-superwash mini skeins were milled in Peru by Knomad Yarns, who ethically source their fibers from around the world.

These all natural beauties will be available in our booth at Black Sheep Gathering, June 26th-28th, at the Expo Centerin Albany, Oregon.

We have several classes coming up this weekend. Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

We still have a few spots left so don't miss out. Eco-printing is super fun.

During the last great rainstorm, I played with the idea of doing rain-dyed tie-dyes. Ice-dyeing is a popular method of tie-dyeing and has beautiful results. I don't always have ice readily available. So what about rain? It's abundant here on the Central Oregon Coast and we were in for a good amount of rain. I think these t-shirts came out fabulouly. Let me know what you think!
