I hand dye textiles in simmering cauldrons of roots, bark, bugs, leaves, and flowers during a full moon while whispering spells into the vats. Prepping and dyeing the wool takes about a week. I LOVE working with wool. It’s softness, resilience, the way it takes natural pigment, the energy it resonates in a space. Wool holds memory, provides comfort. It is a precious resource I’ve begun to steer away from using until I find a way to be greater connected with the sheep and the process in which they are sheared. I have not bought wool in 3 years and continue to recycle and reinvent my current wool inventory, taking apart weavings, saving and reusing every scrap.
