Walnut Dyeing

Some walnuts from G'pa's back yard.













Yarn in the walnut dye bath.














Yummy brown yarn and wool fabric drying!







This was my second nut-dyeing experience. It was easy and almost mistake-proof. It did take reassurance from My Dye Friend. I make mistakes like putting the yarn in the mordant (not wetting it and just chucking it in the pan) and maybe I don't measure perfectly.

I do have rinse, rinse, rinse, wash, rinse, rinse, rinse down to a routine, tho!
