Explore natural dyes while creating a speckled sock blank that you can use to make identical socks (or more)! Using local and seasonal flowers, leaves, roots and plant extracts, we’ll begin exploring the key aspects of working with natural dyes: fibre preparation, sourcing dyestuffs, setting dyes, safe dyeing practice and other tips and tricks and explore some of the many dyeplants found in our local landscapes.

Please note – this workshop is part of The Woolly Good Gathering. To attend this event you must also have a general entry ticket, this can be found here.
