Learn how to forage and dye with Japanese Knotweed root! We will talk about identification, invasive status in our area and where to find it growing. Then, we will create a dye bath with the foraged material. We will also learn about changing the color of dye baths by shifting the pH.
All participants will leave with an info packet containing a Materia Medica on Japanese Knotweed and dye instructions so you can have a guide to do your own dyeing after the workshop.
Suggested donation: $40
You will leave with fabric swatches we will dye in the workshop but if you would like to wear what we dye, we will have 21” x 21” silk scarves available to purchase for $10.
