Eco Dye Workshop

Eco Dyeing (also called leaf print or eco print) is a direct contact dye method drawing out pigments from leaves into fabric. In this workshop you will learn about how to successful eco dye on silk. We will go for a short walk around the park to collect some plant material, which we will then use to create our silk bundles. Let’s get wild!

You will learn:
