Waiting for the rinse. I know it's hard to tell with webcam photos, but I did have a bit of gray prior to this. *grin*
A Dyer police suv is parked inside the safety village a couple years ago. the striping is reminiscent of near by Hammond's older cars. Dyer is one of the last in the country without black and white cars.
Plymouth Dye & Dyeing Works, 5 Coburg Street, Plymouth. Dyer & Dye Merchant. Registered 22 November 1886.
1889. Faint double exposure. There is a portrait photograph of a man, visible when the photograph is held up to light—it almost looks like a watermark. His collar is just visible here around MVD's chest, and his head above and to the right of her head.

Dude. Check out that color! This is exactly the stuff I covet online, but I did it. :)
It's 8 oz of Mashem(?). Not my favorite fiber - reminicent of Wensleydale, a long stapled sheep from the wetter areas of England.
I didn't like the way it felt, so I made approx. 8 batts from the roving.
Jars of dye ingredient, including bleu mogador and vert pistache, photographed in the Essaouira souk, Morocco.
An experiment in fibers. All of these pieces of batting were dyed with the same mix of Procion fire red and rust brown. Left to right: 100% cotton batting (unfortunately destroyed by the final washout in my washing machine, but took the dye very well); Cotton/poly blend -- very mottled in the first piece where I had very little dye in the bucket, overall heathered look in the second piece where I had adequate dye in the bucket; underneath it all is a piece of wool batting fixed with vinegar instead of soda ash -- teh wool took teh dye well, but it's scrim did not, and unfortunately most of teh wool washed away into tiny bits in teh final washout. Word to the wise: hand wash dyed batting!
