I recently finished spinning a skein from a bare Falkland combed top, and I decided it was finally time to try dyeing with some onion skins that I had been collecting.
I used a few different resources to make sure my ratios were right, particularly for mordanting (I used alum). The Modern Natural Dyer and It’s a Stitch Up were very helpful.
I’m pretty pleased with how it came out. I’m thinking next I’ll dye some yarn using some of the abundant blackberries growing on the property.
This turned out beautifully
