Yarns are dyed in small dyelots and each batch is unique. The colours are produced from a selection of natural plants. The colour selection will vary from time to time depending on the seasonal availability of dyes

Mordants are used in the dye process to make the yarn colourfast. All mordants that are used are safe for the environment and are not discarded but are used again in the next dyebath wherever possible. Mordants are used in very small amounts, just enough to set the colour, but still leave the yarn soft to handle.

Some of the colours are:
Logwood blues grey lilac
Madder red pink
Kamala yellow orange
Brazilwood
Cochineal
Cutch
Indigo
Lichen
Fungi
Payment can be made by Paypal or by personal cheque to: Paivi Suomi.
