| The Blue Froth!!! |
Had so many plants last summer,
I moved the dyeing outside
and
invited fiber friends to come share the bounty.
I was able to dye multiple batches of washed fleece and yarn.
The woad kept growing back!

| torn up leaves, ready to go! |
 |
| poured boiling water over & let it steep |
 |
| A friend enjoys the magic moment when the yarn turns from green to blue |

Plenty of blue roving to spin and for weaving into rugs.
