Natural Yarn Dyeing Kit - Cosmos (Bright Orange)

Natural Yarn Dyeing Kit - Cosmos (Bright Orange)

£15.00

Learn the wonders of sustainable natural dyeing with this beginner’s yarn dyeing kit!

Following the clear instructions enclosed in the kit, you will learn how to dye a skein of Ria’s traceable Mendip lambswool using organic dye plants. The yarn has been pre-prepared with a mordant, so that the colour will be bright and long-lasting. Using the dried cosmos flowers provided, you will learn the basic chemistry of natural dyeing by adjusting the pH of the water to produce a vibrant yellow dye.

Contained within the kit is:

  • 20g skein of pre-mordanted Shetland-Romney lambswool yarn

  • Dried cosmos flowers organically grown in Devon

  • pH strips x 2

  • Soda to modify pH and alter the colour

  • Full written and pictorial instructions

All you will need to dye your yarn at home is water, a wooden spoon and a small saucepan with heat source or sealable glass jar.

This kit is accessible for the complete beginner, and would be suitable for older children and up, although adult supervision is advised.
