I’ve been dyeing up a storm over the past few weeks. This is a selection of of mawata silk squares which are fast becoming one of my favourite things to play with. I thought I was doing quite well at varying my colours, but a quick glance above tells me that that’s not really the case! I seem to gravitate towards blue most of the time, but it is my favourite colour!
I had a go an ombre/gradient dyeing one of my squares, and although I do love the resulting effect I think I’m going to have to experiment with different methods as the straight forward dunk in and pull out has messed up the neatness of the layers a little.
I think I’ve become more than a little obsessed with mawata. I’ve no idea what any of these are going to become, or even if I’m going to keep them all, but I’m definitely having lots of fun playing around with all these colours.
