1. Washed the alpaca hair in warm water for about 20 minutes

 

2. Prepared black Ashford acid dye:

I used just a knife point but quite a LOT of water

 

3. Prepared the dye bath:

Mixed Ashford acid dye, water and 1 table spoon of white vinegar and added then (!) the alpaca hair

 

4. Stirred the hair constantly for about 30 minutes while water startet to boil

 

5. The result was disappointing, the color was patchy and not grey, more some kind of purple

 

6. Next try: Rit Dye Pearl Grey

Filled the pot with fresh warm water, 1/2 cup of salt, 1 tablespoon of laundry detergent and the dye and added then (!) the washed (!) alpaca hair

 

7. Stirred the hair constantly for about 15 minutes because I liked the color

 

8. Rinsed the hair in warm water for about 10 minutes, then I washed it twice with warm water and detergent. And then I washed it with shampoo and conditioner and blow-dried it.

 

I am really happy with the result!

from left..white pieces are not dyed at all....

yellow are dyed with chaga...and the green iis both dyed with chaga and overdyed with a weak iron solution...

I have used fabric...wool ( both wool that have been in an Alum solution before the dyeing proces and wool that has not got any Alum)..

I have used cotton and linen ( no Alum used for these fabrics)...cotton is lowest row at the left…

at the right you see two kinds of linen ( I normally use it for my canvas for painting)..the most upper ones is without dyeing and the next is with chaga and under those is chaga and iron ( made the color olive-green)..a coarse kind of linen and a more fine one…

 

The result is that it actually did not have any need to give wool some alum here...the colors were the same for both with alum and without...what did have some importance was how long the fabric stayed into the dyeing bath of Chaga….some did stay in there for 24 hours and some for 5 x 24 hours….and those staying in the dyeing bath for 5x24 hours did get a more saturated color...not darker, despite these many hours, but a better and more deep kind of the color….

 

And compared to what I had expected when putting the fabric into the dye-bath and seeing it turn almost dark.brownish black...it turn out kind of yellow, not even brown…..but I think it is a good dye even though….especially for wool it is satisfactory…..

Normally if I dye on fabric like cotton or linen..i will give them first some solution of bark or leaves from either oak or alder or something like it...plant-material that has some tannins...and then i will dry it and after that i will give it some alum...then it will be ready for taking up the dye as much as it can….some dyeing plant.materials doesn´t need those 3 processes...an ex. can be leaves and husks from Walnut...my experience...some others probably too...

Title: Nippon colours : the Japanese art "Kusaki-zome" : dyeing in a hundred colours with juices of plants and grasses

Creator: Yamazaki, Akira, b. 1892

Imprint: Kamakura : Getumei-kai, 1959

Format: (Extent) 66 p. bill., mounted col. samples ; 28 cm

Exhibition Label: As with other aspects of Japanese aesthetics, the colors traditionally associated with Japanese textiles are those found in nature. The advent of synthetic dyeing agents and the mechanization of textile manufacture that began during the Meiji period endangered the centuries-long tradition of creating desired effects through the use of natural dyes. The hanks of colored silk in this volume are faithful recreations of traditional dyeing recipes, noting the plant used and demonstrating the subtle variations of colors that can be obtained.

A few months ago I ran across a clever small nitrogen laser build.

 

www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCnXftuJ9Zo

 

Back in the early seventies I was fascinated by nitrogen lasers and tried to build one. The vacuum sealing (and excess complexity) was my downfall. Years later I built a simpler unit that worked but that was that.

 

Before that I tried to build the flash-lamp pumped dye laser from CL Strong but once again lack of machining resources stopped my project.

 

I decided to finish what I had started fifty years ago. The build was clever and straightforward. After a short while and with about 50$ I had the nitrogen laser. It worked fine (even with air) so I got started on making a nitrogen laser pumped dye laser.

 

I had some old surplus quartz quvettes that had frosted sides. I used diamond abrasives to polish the two frosted sides. My attic full of crap yielded the mirrors and (amazingly) the quartz cylindrical lens.

 

In my experience the lens was the most useful part. I could get the dyes to lase using just the lens (super-radiance) but the mirrors not, except for one dye.

 

This photo shows the lens, the dye filled cuvette and the mirrors lasing. The dye is a fountain pen ink (probably a Fluorescein dye) lazing green. The pump is the nitrogen laser which is invisible UV light.

 

Cheers.

Walked into my favorite cafe on Sunday and there was a traditional dyeing workshop going on.

 

Harukisan hand dyes textiles the old fashioned way (well, except for all the plastic buckets) going as far foraging for his own roots and barks to create his dyes.

I actually can't remember exactly where this is; I'll have to do some research. But the colors of India are so unmistakable, that I'd at least be able to narrow that down even if it were lost among all of my files.

Workers tanning and dyeing leather in Fes, Morocco. It is difficult for tourists to actually go into the dyeing area, but there are a number of leather shops with balconies where you can watch the action in the pits.
