I am learning about natural dyeing right now, which I've discovered is like weaving in that it requires a ton of prep before you get to the so-called good stuff. But it turns out, I love winding skeins and measuring things out and rinsing mordants and writing in my little notebook. Same as with weaving. There can be a peace in each of these steps that is so different from when you are in the actual production of cloth phase.

I suspect I'm enjoying natural dyeing for similar reasons 😊. It's slow and methodical, with an element of surprise.
