Dyer's Garden

My dye garden is up and running! So far I've got:
-Madder
-Chamomile
-Daises
-Black Eyed Susans
-Lady's Bedstraw
-Purple Basil
-Marigolds
With more to come...

I put together a dyepot of wild daises today--I've set them in my pot in a black trash bag so they can sit and heat and steep... Seeing as I don't have a stove yet, I've got to do everything the hard way.

We've also got veggies...Sweet Potatos, tomatos, strawberries, boston lettuce, carrots, garlic, parsley, basil, sage, mint, green and yellow peppers, eggplant, blueberries, and broccoli.

Naturally Dyed Yarns on Etsy

Take a look at my new additions. I've added some naturally dyed yarns, as well as recycled t-shirt woven rugs.
