I am a spinner/dyer from way back. I used to co-own a little shop in Sumner, Washington, called The Country Weaver; and my family has raised sheep and angora goats in both WA and New Hampshire.
Although I've been concentrating on knitting for the past few years, I brought along my spinning wheel when I retired and we moved to New Mexico. My husband recently brought me some beautiful wool and some alpaca fiber from a wool processor in Roswell who was going to throw it away !
! so I am ready to start.
I am very interested in your fermented avocado dye and would love to hear how it turns out. I would like to try some solar dyeing with all our abundant sunshine and would like to hear from those who have tried it, with and without mordants.
Thanks, DE, for starting this thread!
