Back to Dye

I ordered another batch of fiber tops from RH Lindsey. I decided to try my hand at dyeing roving again. I received a large crock pot for Christmas, and would like to learn the art of dyeing in it.

Vinegar & Water Start the procedure.


Roving is then placed in the solution.


The roving is layered in the crock and then all dyed up.


I let it sit for about 3 hours on high. Then I let it cool for several hours more.

I started with brown, red and yellow dyes.

What a Mess!


Guess what color it ended up?

Stay tuned.
