I was excited about the SNACCCKS on your counter, but then finding out you have them for family DND night is so freaking wholesome. I'm gonna snack on some chips to celebrate.

Thank you for sharing this. You make me want to grow lots of vegetables this summer just for dyeing fibre! 😀 Can’t wait to see what you choose to dye next.

I am glad that KZitem recommanded your channel, this is a great video, I was thinking maybe befor dying the skeins, we could put the herbs in a cheese cloth or any thin fabric you have around before putting them to simmer, what are your thoughts?

That is a good idea. Keep in mind that a cloth bag or cheese cloth may also absorb some of the dye.

First of all , very nice work. Nice colours and good explanation. Can you dry the carrot tops for later use? I need to dye some square meters of linen, so I need a lot of carrot tops. As this would be my first dyeing project is it similar to your wool project or do I need some more preparation (sourcing).. how much carrot tops would you use for 400 grams of linen. Thx in advance and keep up the good work.

Thank you! I think that the carrots tops work best fresh. I haven't dyed linen before, but it is a plant fiber, so the fiber will need a different preparation (mordanting) process than wool. It will also likely need a higher ratio of plant material to fiber if you wanted a saturated green. Personally, I would want a 2:1 ratio of carrot tops to linen. But that is a lot of carrot tops! If possible try to dye a smaller sample as a test. Good luck!

Have you ever tried dyeing with mowed grass ? Thank you for this very nice video! And when you say "iron" what the chemical composition or scientific name, so I can find the exact product in my country, plz :)

Iron: ferrous sulfate. I haven't tried mowed grass! Interesting idea!

I was just wondering myself about using cut lawn grass for dyeing. Because it's one of the most staining plants when playing sports and it's so hard to wash out 🤔 same with beetroot juice, cherry juice, blackberries, tomatoes, and spinach - they all stain like hell (and all delicious)

I have only tried wool so far. You could try a shirt if it is cotton or another natural fiber. Synthetics don’t absorb the dye. Good luck!

How do you separate the carrot bits from the yarn? It looks so impossibly entangled! What's the trick to getting them all out?
@MyraMadeColor
3 жыл бұрын
Comically tangled! During the rinse process most of the larger pieces are removed. It helps to rinse in a large bowl of water, and gently swish the skein back and forth. Once dry, any remaining little bits are easy to brush out.

just adoreble! Thanks for sharing this! I really like both of the colours and am going to try this, too! It kind of botheres me somehow, when I just throw away the green tops of the Carrot, without knowing what I can do with them. p.s. it looks like cooking noodles with Pesto.LoL I guess I will make Pesto Pasta for dinner😁

The iron shifts the color to green. If you want a yellow dye, then you don't need iron.
