feeling blue.

I've had this indigo kit for over a year now. Finally decided to go for it yesterday and can honestly say, it was the most fun I have had with dye - ever! Stephen had just mowed the yard and the smell of fresh cut grass + the beginning of fall temps... I couldn't have asked for a better day.

In addition to indigo, I am planning on several more natural dye experiments. Next - with berries from our yard! This book has been very helpful in my research so far. I think natural colored shredded scarves will be gorgeous...

I've been following your indigo dye experiments on Twitter :) It's such a wonderful dye and your pieces have come out wonderfully!!

I also work with natural dyes, and speaking from experience, I know you'll get addicted to the entire process and the results :) Happy dyeing!
