SUMMARY:Natural Dye Basics: Foraging for Color

Each class will include the basics of proper fiber preparation as well as an orientation to the studio’s procedures and practices. \nIn this workshop\, students will learn to use foraged wild materials for use in the dye pot. On the first day of class\, students will learn the proper fiber preparation and mordanting for cellulose and protein fibers with both alum and iron. Protein (yarn) and cloth samples will be dyed in these baths. The class will then go outdoors to collect dye materials. At this time of year there\, there will be many materials available for collection. Students will collect leaves from trees\, nuts\, bark\, wildflowers\, roots and lichen. The class will then return to the studio with their collected dye treasures to photograph\, identify\, and prepare the material for dyeing. Most collected material will require an overnight soak before being made into a bath. Possibilities for modifying colors by changing pH\, adding iron\, and over-dyeing with indigo will be explored. \nStudents should be prepared to walk the grounds of Sanborn Mills Farm\, including woods paths\, trails\, and fields.  \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Skills + Techniques\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Students will learn: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nFiber preparation: scouring for cellulose and protein\nIdentifying dye materials in the field\nExploring\, collecting\, and processing foraged dye material\nMordanting with alum and iron\nMaking samples of dye colors on different fibers for record keeping\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Instructor\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Sara Goodman \n			\n				Learn More \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Tools + Materials\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Students should bring: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nStudents should dress and prepare for walking outside in the woods\, trails\, and fields\nGardening gloves and clippers\nStudents are welcome to bring dye stuffs with them that they have collected on their own for the group to try\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Material Fee: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n$50 includes fabric for samples\, all dyes and assists\, notebook of recipes and instructions paid at time of workshop\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				COVID-19 \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nPlease read our COVID-19 Policy prior to registering\nWe are honoring each instructor’s specific COVID-19 safety requests.
