Description
You will learn how to dye skeins and batts of pure wool, using acid dyes mordanted with lemon juice. You will also learn how to create your own multi-coloured yarn, suitable for knitting, weaving or crochet. The dye will be fixed using both microwaving and boiling in a saucepan. The course will not cover dyeing plant based yarns, or dyeing with natural dyes, because of the chemicals needed to mordant the wool.
