TETT CENTRE
Located on the waterfront, King Street W.
at Ellerbeck Ave.
this is a workshop sponsored by the
Kingston Handloom Weavers and Spinners
Studio on second level
It would be great to have a few more participants to expand
the number of samples everyone would get to take home. This workshop teaches basic skills that can then be applied
to any other type of dying you would like to try.
This will be a controlled
acid dye workshop where students will dye colour wheels on protein fibres using
different primary colours and then dye to specifications
such as overdyeing or dyeing to a sample either on paper or
an actual yarn.
Students will be fully comfortable with dyeing
after this course using proportions and math needed to
reproduce a colour. This will also include dyeing with food
colours.
Specifically directed to those who like to dye wool rovings/yarns for spinning or other needle work.
