• May include: A digital download for a natural dyeing techniques book, volume 1, by Annika Scheer. The cover features a stack of hand-dyed yarn in shades of purple and blue, with a vase of flowers in the background. The website address is www.rosemaryandpinesfiberarts.de.
  • May include: Table of contents for a natural dyeing workshop. The table of contents includes sections on introduction, natural dyeing process, yarn color variations, dyeing techniques, and colorway references. The image also includes skeins of yarn in various shades of blue and pink.
  • May include: A close-up of a hand holding a pile of pink rose petals. The text "chapter 01" and "Introduction" are visible in the background. The text reads: "When I started natural dyeing in 2019, I read everything I could about the topic. How the whole process works, which plants or extracts to use, which mordants are suitable for which fibers and so on. And while there is a lot of valuable information out there, I wasn't able to find pretty much anything on the actual dyeing techniques to create different color effects on the yarn. Unlike dyeing with synthetic acid dyes, where it is rather straightforward to create a variegated or speckled yarn because the uptake of the dye is much faster, using natural dyes is a complex and slow process. This is why I decided to create this guide on four different dyeing techniques to make the whole natural dyeing process more straightforward and easier for you."
  • May include: A close-up of yarn skeins in various shades of blue, teal, and purple. The text "chapter 03 Yarn Color Variations" is visible at the top of the image.
  • May include: Four different skeins of yarn dyed in shades of purple, blue, and pink. The yarn is arranged in a grid pattern. The text "4 Natural Dyeing Techniques" and "Every Natural Dyer Should Know" is visible in the image.
  • May include: Four skeins of yarn dyed in shades of brown, peach, yellow, and green. The yarn is arranged on a wooden surface.
  • May include: Six skeins of hand-dyed yarn in various colors, including green, yellow, purple, and blue. The yarn is arranged in a loose, twisted shape, and each skein is photographed against a white background.
  • May include: A close-up of a bundle of yarn dyed in shades of pink, yellow, and white. The yarn is arranged in a loose pile, with the ends of the yarn visible. The text "I enjoyed the ebook because it allowed me (as someone who has not used natural dye yet) to get a quickstart guide for a first dye project - AND enough further info on colour variations to inspire additional experiments. Thanks for letting me read it as a tester, Annika! - Greetings from Saxony, Mara" is visible on the yarn.
  • May include: A close-up of a hand holding a skein of bright yellow yarn. The yarn is twisted and knotted, and the background is a blurry image of yellow flowers. The text reads: "I am interested in learning about natural dyeing and read this e-book as someone who is a complete novice at the techniques used when dyeing with natural ingredients. The book is so clearly written and well thought out. I'm looking forward to experimenting and discovering some new (to me) natural colourways! - Margaret from Prince Edward Island, Canada"
  • May include: A close-up of a hand holding a skein of yarn dyed in shades of yellow and cream. The yarn is twisted into a knot.

Where are You on your Natural Dyeing Journey?
