Have you ever wanted to play with the watercolor effect of warp painting but without the chemicals associated with standard dyes? Here’s your chance to explore the beautiful world of natural dyes on a pre-wound warp. You will bring one pre-wound and scoured wool warp no longer than 4-5yds, about scarf width. Instructions for weighing, scouring and tying will be emailed before the beginning of class. Warps will be mordanted in class. Various natural dye extracts will be available for use to achieve a lovely range of colors creating one unique warp ready for weaving.
