Cole and I snuck out to the woods between rain storms this afternoon to collect a basket full of bright yellow tansy flowers. It was so nice to spend a few quiet moments alone with my middle boy, talking and working together. We filled a few jars with the flowers, leaves and a basket of acorns I've been hoarding since spring. I filled each jar with boiling water and will let them sit overnight. I'm planning on dyeing a few skeins of wool yarn tomorrow, so stop back and see how it all turns out!
My girls and I picked goldenrod and have dyed some yarn as well. Can't wait to see your results.
ReplyDeleteThat is really neat! Someday I would like to try that.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious to see the different shades of yellow from all the different plants we've been using, Tonya:) I had no idea how much I would love this method of dyeing.
