Natural Dyes Workshop Series: 24 Natural Dye Samples for Color Journal

Explore the natural dyes blooming in August at Pine Meadow Ranch! In this one-day workshop, we will delve into natural dye processes and engage in hands-on lessons about dye plant harvesting, building dye pots, and coaxing color from plants. Using pre-mordanted fibers, the workshop will focus on the basics of natural dyes and the ecstatic magic of plant-based color. Participants will receive a natural dye journal to document their workshop experiments, capturing the relationships between the dyes and plant and animal fibers. Attendees will leave with one finished textile and a natural dye journal.
