Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this dye class:

In accordance with current NYC requirements, all students attending in-person workshops at Brooklyn Craft Company will be required to show proof of at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccine upon arrival

Learn the beautiful art of natural bundle dyeing! In this two-hour workshop led by instructor Molly George, you'll gain an understanding of how to work with natural dyes as you explore the process of bundle dyeing.

This workshop will cover:

  • Introduction to natural dye plants and mordants
  • Introduction to protein-based and cellulose-based fibers
  • Overview of natural dyestuffs including onion skins, cochineal, turmeric, avocado skins, fresh and dried flowers, black tea, eucalyptus, and more
  • How to bundle dye on silk and cotton, including how to prepare the fabric, place the dyestuffs, bundle the fabric, and steam the fabric on a stovetop.
  • Each student will leave with two dyed pieces (a cotton dish towel and a silk scarf), and the know-how to design and create more pieces on your own.

Class fee includes instruction and all the necessary supplies and materials (including dyestuffs and fabrics).


No prior experience necessary - beginners welcome!

    Great class! Joey was super helpful and I learned a lot. I think it would have been better with slightly fewer people though...there wasn’t enough room for everyone to spread out their fabrics on the table. And a couple of people used up a LOT of the dyestuffs.

    Fun class. I really like the teacher but wish she’d give more examples of final results and how to achieve a desired look. For instance letting the class know Techniques for getting a lot of color and techniques for getting a little color. It was hard to know if we were using too many of the herbs and flowers, etc. or not enough.
