Today I wove some cloth for dying.
I decided to use a mixture of natural and made made fibres which means you can choose which type of yarn to dye allowing the other to stay the original colour.
I wove with cotton and polyester yarn and chose to dye the cotton yarn using direct dyes.
I made 2 dye baths one in blue and one in orange. I dyed one half first then rinsed and then dyed the other half.
The result was pleasing the colours bled into one another making a bottle green colour in the middle.
