Thank you I just found your video. I have been looking for solid colors of hand dyed your
Thank you so much for this series. I just tried dyeing for the first time and it was SO fun - and you were the perfect guide to take me through it and teach what I needed. Thank you!
You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful.
So pretty!😃
Thank you!
They are all gorgeous colors! Please can you tell me how to mix up the citric acid to the water? Thank you for this tutorial.
This video should help you out. ruclips.net/video/uG573S3TjJU/видео.htmlsi=QFmSo1p-0MEnqIB-
@@EssenceofAutumnYarn Thank you so much!
love this
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed.
Watching you dye yarn is so satisfying ❤
That's wonderful. So glad you enjoyed watching.
What temperature do you recommend the water to be when adding dye? I know you said you put it in your bakers oven afterwards at 180-200 degrees setting for about five hours. Is your oven considered an Oven/proofer? (I was looking at some used ones). If so, can you use the proofer section as well? Thanks for your time!
The proofing temp settings are too low so no I only use the holding settings on mine and I put it as high as it will go which is 180-200 degrees. I like the water as hot as I can get it. If it's steaming or uncomfortable to the touch then for me it's good to go.
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos! They’re very informative. Do you use hot or cold water in this demonstration?
I always use hot water.
Hello! I love your color work! Any chance you could share the vendor who prints your beautiful skein bands? Thank you
Hi. I just use a local copy /print shop near where I live. Any print shop should be able to do it.
My new obsession!! lol such beautiful yarn. ❤
Thank you.
Thank you so much for an excellent video. Your dye work is incredible and you are a very good movie maker as well. I hope to use fiber reactive dyes to do some linen napkins.
Thank you very much!
Do you mind sharing what spin dryer you use? It looks like a perfect size!
The brand name is Panda and I got it from Amazon.
@@EssenceofAutumnYarn thank you, I'll check it out! It's so hard to get enough water out of the yarn so it dries faster.
Beautiful as always! I always enjoy your videos, the way you explain why you dye the way you do, and the way you show all of the steps. Thank you for taking the time to make the videos.
Thank you so much! I really enjoy the process of making these videos and I appreciate you taking the time watch and comment on my videos.
what is the dye fixative that you use?
The dye fixative is from Dharma trading and it's for procion dyes.

I loved watching this beautiful process <3
I'm so glad you enjoyed it and thank you for watching.
I've dyed cotton and find heat helps reduce the "fix" time. I use an Australian dye from Tintex, which can be used to dye any fibre, just change you mordant. I also add a fair bit of salt, I've found that reduces the time to wash. Thanks for sharing. I love the shine on the bamboo. 👍👍
I love how the yarn took the dye. As you noticed it has a nice sheen and I think it looks and feels similar to silk. Great tip about the heat.
thankyou for sharing.
My pleasure. Thank you for watching.
So beautiful. Unfortunately with the cost of water, and the drought we had this summer in Western Australia, that much washing is not an option for me. I would love to dye plant fibres for our hot climate.
Silk may be a good option for you. It can be dyed with acid dyes which doesn't take so much water and it's perfect for hot weather projects.
Thank you for a great start to the weekend. I absolutely love your videos. I have learned a lot. I don’t think I will be dyeing any plant based fibers anytime soon. 😂. It’s beautiful but labor intensive. I think I will just buy it. And now that I know how long it takes to dye this plant based yarn , I won’t complain about the price. Have a wonderful weekend. Be blessed
I wonder what you will say when I tell you that I spin this yarn myself. And it's a lot harder than spinning wool, but there's nothing better! Especially now that I know how wonderful it is to dye. But I couldn't do it if I had a job or children.
I'm so glad you enjoy my videos. Yes buying the yarn is much easier😊 You have a wonderful weekend as well.
Thank you for the wonderful video. So many people do not realize how time consuming dying the plant based fibers is, and really, how back breaking the rinsing can be. As a fellow yarn dyer, it was so nice watching your video and have you explain everything so clearly. It is so true that there are not a lot of videos on RUclips about this type of yarn dying. If you could post the link to Amazon for the spoons you are using, it would be so appreciated. I have some of the Jacquard dyes in the smaller jars, and it is almost next impossible to get the dye out without spilling it everywhere. Again, thank you for posting such a wonderful video on dying the plant based fibers. Donna
That's the reason why I don't buy Jacquard colors. There is no reason for me to go away from Dharma. I buy these spoons when needed for soap making and cosmetics (in Germany). They are very narrow and you can get in everywhere.
The set I bought are no longer available but there's lots of other options if you put double ended lab spoon in the search.
Absolutely gorgeous!! I think one of the drawbacks of plantbased dyes is all the extra rinsing. You almost need a continuous water heater, but I don't know how cost-effective those are!!
You are right. We have an old water tank and I have to just work with what I have.
Hello my dear! I spun rami, bamboo and linen years ago simply because I wanted to know what exactly these fibers are and so they have been lying there undyed for 10 years now and you come with your video as if sent by God. Wonderful, now I can buy the reactive dyes and get started. Thank you so much because I can now enchant all my beautiful spun threads.
Glad it was helpful and enjoy dyeing your yarn.
You have the most vibrant colorways that I've even seen ❤
Thank you.
I appreciate you sharing your process with us ❤
Thank you for watching.
I wonder if using a spin dryer on the first few rinses would decrease the total amount of rinsing required? Or squeezing the yarn through rollers? Seems like getting as much of the dye/void liquid in the first rounds might have a big impact!? This washing step really shows why so few indie dyers do cellulosic yarns- sooooo much time spent per skein!! You must have been absolutely wiped out after rinsing all those skeins!!
I suppose this would be a good option, but I think you run the risk of dye remaining in the drum's collection tray and making you think the wool is bleeding during subsequent spins. I have a washing machine that doesn't turn the laundry before it spins and I would try this. But first I would rinse the color out a bit so that this doesn't happen to me. Have fun with the bamboo fiber!
I was really tired but I knew what I was in for. I took breaks while waiting for my hot water tank to fill up.
You have such an incredible sense of color! These are gorgeous colorways. I love how vibrant and shiny the yarn is when it’s finished.
Thank you so much.
Wonderful!! I just got some procion dyes to color some bamboo combed top fiber. I see you are dyeing in low immersion- is that the same soda ash solution? (Your tool is called a scoopula, designed for weighing out chemicals- no wonder it’s perfect for you)
Yes I'm using the soda ash solution. Enjoy your dyeing.
I love your videos. Could you tell me the vinegar /water ratio please? Or is it the same as the citric acid. Thanks for sharing🙃
If for example I needed to use a cup of citric acid solution and had to substitute with vinegar I would just use the same amount of vinegar straight from the jug, not diluted with water.
This answered so many questions I didn’t even know how to ask. Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Do you have a heat source on, under the pans, when you pour the dye and the acid?
I use a proofing oven as a heat source so the yarn and water are preheated in there before I apply the dye. I take the pans out of the oven, apply the dye and then put it back in. So no there is no heat source under the pan while I'm doing the application but the yarn and water is hot.
I totally agree with valm7192... And even more: you could call those "the ruined ones"!! I like the effect!!
This was such a well detailed tutorial & your voice is soothing.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Does the yarn base matter?? Could I do this technique with cotton yarn?
You can speckle cotton yarn but you need to use a dye formulated for plant based fibres. The acid dye that I'm using in the video will not work on cotton. I will have a video coming soon where I show how I do the speckle technique on bamboo yarn and the method I used will also work on cotton so stay tuned for that. If you haven't already subscribe to be notified when that video is available.
Beautiful! so relaxing to watch. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I have done ice dying before 💕💕
This is exactly what i was looking for! I can't wait to try tomorrow! Thank you for your brilliant tutorial- you are a natural (and super nice) teacher!! 😊
Thank you. I'm glad my video was helpful. Have fun dyeing!
Buautiful colourways! I love The Skagen painters. For example, Peder Severin Kroyer and Marie Kroyer. The extraordinaire light over Skagen, which influenced many artists, is magical. The Kroyer couples garden paintings are also beautiful. The soft greens would make another gorgeous colourway. ❤
Thank you for those suggestions. I will look up these artists.
Fabulous once again. Such a great idea for me when I stain my white clothes 🤭😂 thanks for sharing 🥰
I never thought of that but that's actually a great idea. Glad you enjoyed the video.
So fascinating to watch - the shirts are so beautiful.
Thank you.
Thank you for posting. Your shirts turned out lovely. Really appreciate your info on the rinse out process. Did you use more muted colors on the one that appears to have some black? Hope you do some more of these.
Thank you for the compliment. Yes I used softer colours on the longer shirt that is more gray toned. I will be sharing more clothing dye videos in the near future.
Fascinating to watch!! The tops are beautiful & gorgeous on you!! 🥰
Thank you so much😊
Thank you for sharing your process. I love your use of color
Thank you for watching. Glad you enjoyed.
I so agree. No failure is ever really a failure. It is something to learn from. We don't bat an eye about paying for music or dance or gymnastic lessons, or whatever other lessons. Why is this different? Just think of it as you are paying yourself to be your own teacher. :)
Thank you. That's a nice thought.
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise. I started dyeing yarn two years ago and your videos were invaluable. It is so kind to share this information for free. I love your work.
I'm happy my videos are helpful. Thank you for watching.
thanks for this very clear instructive video. It helped me a lot.
Glad it helped!
Gorgeous dress!!
Thank you! 😊
So very clever ! You must be thrilled with your new beautiful garment. Its good you showed your journey of working out what didn’t work and also ripping back. Some people would give up at that point without realising it’s a part of being a successful maker.😊
Thank you. Yes there are frustrating moments but it is part of the process and the end result is worth it. Thank you for watching.
It's beautiful! Your video on this technique is outstanding!
Thank you so much!
