Each week, we are emailed with questions from our natural dye community asking simple and complex questions that we thought might be worth sharing. This week, we thought we’d curate as many indigo questions as we could pull from FEEDBACK FRIDAY’s past to give you something worth bookmarking.
Of course, all of your burning questions about indigo dyeing answered by natural dyer in chief, Kathy Hattori, Founder of Botanical Colors:
Washing indigo without felting
Dyeing cotton/linen fabric and discharge printing the natural way
How does the cold indigo leaf dyeing process compare in color intensity to hot methods
How many times does it take to get a super dark indigo with BC indigo?
How does one dye wool in indigo?
How to make a large indigo vat that stores well
How do you know when to add more indigo?
Is the fresh leafed indigo method as light and wash fast as the extract indigo vat methods?
My indigo stock solution isn’t changing color? What should I do?
