This 2 day workshop focuses on natural dyeing using a range of sustainable materials found in Loch Ness woodlands. Suitable for all levels of experience from beginners to those familiar with yarn dyeing. We start each day with some easy natural dyeing using locally sourced ingredients. Following this the workshop offers a unique opportunity to forage for dye materials in either SSSI, ancient woodland or new woodland near Loch Ness, and a visit to a local cafe for lunch. We then return to site to learn more about preparing the materials and recap on methods used in the morning.
