We are going through a cool rainy season now so I am not sure if my newer pots will work at all and I just hope we will get a period of hot dry weather soon!Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05597640040480685246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-36156763816229950212010-07-28T17:18:47.934+03:002010-07-28T17:18:47.934+03:00Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us. ...Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us. We learn so much from you. After seeing all your solar dying blogs I'm busy trying my own. So much fun and the jars are beautiful! Hopefully my wool fabric will turn out beautiful too.Kathy -MIQuilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01688123959398557729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-89543412782603138952010-07-28T15:56:01.814+03:002010-07-28T15:56:01.814+03:00Helen, I agree that it is good to experiment and k...Helen, I agree that it is good to experiment and know what works in one's climate, besides it is fun most of the time:). And I have had good results with madder and rhubarb roots, and I have solar dyed some blue yarns, too and gotten nice green colors with rhubarb roots over blue. They went to the market and they sold almost immediately.<br />Mushrooms need hot, so I should have know they are not so good solar dyeing, but I had to try. Birch leaves was a surprise, because I saw your beautuful yellows, but our nights were propably too cool in June and it also rained a lot then. Anyway, it is an easy way to dye, and I am sure that from now on I will have solar dyeing jars every summer. Too bad our summer is so short:(Leenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14266878515009058403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-60300452442557309672010-07-28T13:23:04.379+03:002010-07-28T13:23:04.379+03:00Oh how disappointing for you Leena.

I use solar dyeing as an easy way to dye and also because the pots look good and something else for visitors to my garden to look at but if you are dyeing commercially probably it is not so good. <br />However disappointing the results it is useful to know! Incidentally do mushrooms usually take a high temperature to extract colour?Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05597640040480685246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-65942192181503730292010-07-27T19:07:22.797+03:002010-07-27T19:07:22.797+03:00Niin, sienet hiukan menevät hukkaan kontaktivärjäy...Niin, sienet hiukan menevät hukkaan kontaktivärjäyksessä. Silkkihuiviin kyllä aika kivasti tarttui tummana ja kivoina kuvioina, mutta villalle ei niin hyvin. Ja tosiaan tuo auringossa pitäminen oikein mädätti sienet, en muista ollenkaan, että silkkihuivikontaktivärjäyksessä olisi tullut mitään hajuja.<br />Kokenilli ei myöskään anna kaikkeansa viileässä, mutta onneksi se kyllä toimii vielä jälkikätenkin värjätessä myöhemmin. Sinänsä ihmeellistä, koska kokenilliliemet ei säily hyvinä minusta pitkiä aikoja.Leenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14266878515009058403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9129357734481422196.post-53918199108928909422010-07-27T14:40:29.901+03:002010-07-27T14:40:29.901+03:00Voi mikä harmi.

Ne toisen purkin langat olivat kuitenkin hienoja! <br />Tein talvella huonelämpötilassa pikkuämpäreissä useampiviikkoisen kontaktivärjäyksen krapilla, kokenilllla, sipulilla, seitikeillä ja tiikerikaunosilmän kukilla. Tuli tosi kirjavia, tiplulankoja. Hankalaa sanoa että tuliko kaikista hyvin väriä, pohjaväriksi tuli roosa tummemmin pilkuin. Luulen että sienet ja kukat menivät siinäkin hukkaan. <br /><br />Sittemmin keitin kaunokki-jälkiliemessä kaikki kontaktiämpäreistä kerätyt kiinteät aineet, tuli aika kaunista oranssia :Dpäpähttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09888669418013257118noreply@blogger.com
