blue equinox
the year's last hurrah for indigo
natural indigo powder mixed in lye solution...7am
indigo stock reduced...just after 8am
mohair blend, silk blend, and silk yarns soaking in the meantime
three hanks of pink Euroflax scoured in washing soda...two of the three went very pale and the third blanched just a little
what the three hanks of Euroflax look like after thirty minutes in the vat, rinsing and washing
more tomorrow...
