In this 4 day workshop, Aaron will guide participants through the world of natural dyes. Using both garden-grown and foraged plants--including marigolds, sumac, black walnut and indigo--we'll learn the basics of bundle dyeing, as well as resist dyeing techniques for creating patterns on fabric. We will also make our own clay paste resist to use with indigo. Participants will learn to prepare their fabric for dyeing, and how to employ pH shifts to increase their natural palette.
