playsilk dyeing workshop !



in late may, rene shoemaker led a dyeing workshop at ARROW.

we dyed playsilks for our little ones, but in the process we learned about immersion dyeing and some of us played around with some tie dyeing too.
we had lots of fun, and will do this again sometime !



the undyed silks drying on the line:
