We have our last Guild day before the Summer on the 17th and for that days activity we need some coloured silk. It was a lovely sunny day, so ideal for drying the dyed fibres outside.
Back to weaving now.

Acid dyeing day
I dyed some silk caps and fibre with acid dyes today.
We have our last Guild day before the Summer on the 17th and for that days activity we need some coloured silk. It was a lovely sunny day, so ideal for drying the dyed fibres outside.
I would have liked a bit more dark patches for contrast, but over all I'm pleased with the end result.

Your dyeing looks fresh and very inviting for either spinning or silk fusion!
ReplyDeleteWat een snoepjes van kleuren. Heerlijk. Ben reuze benieuwd wat jullie gaan doen.
ReplyDeleteI love the color combination!
ReplyDeleteGaan je handen niet jeuken bij het zien van die mooi gekleurde vezeltjes? Moeilijk om te wachten tot de 17e. Ik ben benieuwd wat je ermee gaat doen.
ReplyDeleteLynnette guessed right: silk fusion.
ReplyDeleteFor making cut out figures which we will use for felting on white woollen fleece.
Hmm, will you felt with that or spin? Either way, very pretty.
