Natural dyes guide - Simple steps for seasonal living
We can see, hear and breathe in the beauty of spring even as we stay at home during these unusual days. If we know what to look for and have clear steps in mind, it’s possible to make the most of even short walks outside.
Natural dyeing is a slow, mindful process that’s ideal for these lockdown times. Foraging the first nettles - whether in a quiet wood or an urban alleyway - you can transform what nature gives and learn how to use it at home to create shades and tones of infinite variety.

Blossoms, roots, flowers, wood bark, leaves, berries or kitchen waste.
