Great video, shame I found it so late. Channel hasn’t gotten another video in several years

Thank you for the great explanation of what they would have done in the Viking age. I look forward to learning more on the Viking Economy, and the goods they would produce for the market place.

I've found that unrolled cotton balls make good test subjects that you can make a small amount of a dye to test it out. Also one way to tell if there's a lot of iron in your tap water is if you regularly get a pink slimy film on your bathtub and sink that you have to scrub off. That pink film is a bacteria that consumes iron. So if you get it in your apartment building you know that there's at least a little iron in your water. I also recently experimented with heating my water in a kettle that looked like it was made of bronze, but could also be copper. Using this water to brew purple cabbage yarn made a lighter color with an unearthly glow to it. Not a literal glow, I mean the shade it developed. It was incredible. Also don't forget that besides urine you can get alkali from potash. Put your ashes out in a pot or jar before it rains, and then let the rainwater fill the jar and seep in. Oak produced high quality potash.

Well done, Kat!!! You have smoke passing your position...cooking up something fun? If you demonstrated more of the processes whilst describing it, it would have been more engaging.

Yes, we were both cooking a meal and dyeing wool with the lichen as I did the filming of this portion of the video. We hope to do more instructional videos in the future where we dive a bit deeper into individual dye materials and the process. I hope you enjoyed the information.

I am so trying to get purple and fushia! I have not used natural things to dye fiber, except paper, it's going to be fun experimenting, I have 2 different lichen on trees in my yard so already collected some off the ground! Thank you
