Botanical Dyeing

Monika’s passion and specialty is making wall hangings and tapestry that are both rich in colour and texture.

While Monika was searching for ‘one of a kind’ tapestries materials, she discovered botanical dyeing, which allowed her to produce unique yarn colours herself.

During this  2 hour Botanical dyeing workshop, you’ll be taught where to look for dyes, how to effectively mordant the fabric and how to prepare a dye bath.

This workshop is suited for knitters, weavers, spinners, or anyone looking to create their own beautiful plant-based dyes; with each student learning how to dye their chosen material. Included in the package to take home is an e-book on botanical dying and a hank of hand-dyed wool.

This is a beginners class and no prior knowledge is required.
