Day 10 Creativity - Solar Dyeing - setting up

Just setting up solar dyeing from some plants I have never tried before.
As yet Unknown red bush ( front garden) , Lily (Orange) , Rosebay Willowherb, Tansy ( from the garden)
A friend (from Diss WSD) tells me that the 'red' bush is good from dyeing from..... Must ask her the name again - and write it down!




I have now scoured and mordanted several more skeins so can try some more but I need to go on a jam jar hunt......

  1. I am just starting to experiment with this and my native plants but I am wondering, what do you do about the mold that forms?

  2. I would move it off and probably put it on the garden, then top up with the water I had initially used.
