summer dyeing-2

more fig leaves, this time on bourette silk which somewhat influenced the color outcome. not unpleasant, akhaki of sorts.the yarn seeped in the dye for 3-4 days no heat just the 35º room temperature (⋋__⋌) 

the new batch of fig leaves gave this almost fluorescent yellow green . it's really a bit more green that what the photo captured.

the companion is second extraction suo on silk bourette.also steeped in for some days.have dis covered that heat kills dyes a lot if using small quantities.i've been able to get 3 extractions fom 10-15 grams of dyestuff if done cold.one needs patience though.
