Attendees will learn how to prepare textiles and select suitable dye sources to achieve vibrant, lasting colors while considering how different fiber types, such as cotton, linen, silk, and wool, influence dye uptake. We will explore extending the natural color palette with modifiers such as iron and indigo. Each participant will leave with a stack of local color swatch cards, a hand-dyed silk & cotton handkerchief, and written information to replicate these processes at home. Additional mordanted textiles will be available to purchase and can be dyed during the workshop.
