Natural Dye Kit
Natural Dye Kit
Have you been curious about natural dyeing? Our kits are an easy way to get started.
We only use natural dye materials grown and hand harvested on our farm, not extracts shipped from across the world. These dyes yield the colors of Puget Sound and shift from year to year, season to season. Each resulting skein is unique to each dyer (thats you!). We farm on preserved, historic farm land, use sustainable growing practices, and never use any synthetic chemicals. By purchasing our yarns and dye kits, you are preserving and
participating in a vibrant tradition of craft. You are also helping create pollinator habitat as well as supporting local agriculture.
