Weld a prettiest light and bright yellow and it is the most permanent of the yellow natural dyes.

Weld yellow is the best base for brightest greens. It has been used for this in virtually all Antique Oriental Carpets. Weld is one of the most anciently used dyes: Egyptian mummy bandages have been identified as dyed with weld!

Our weld is grown in Anatolia, the longest producing weld growing area in the world.

Silk: Brilliant, clear, bright and fast. Use at 50% to 100% by weight of silk, on a 3% Tin fixer-mordant.

Wool: Rich, clear and fast. Use at 50% to 100% by weight of wool, on a 25% Alum fixer-mordant.

Greens: an exception to the rule of "dye Indigo first", weld is so permanent it never runs into the Indigo vat. The layering of the blue over the yellow gives a depth to the greens that is unique.

Dyers secret: Use a bit of Chalk (calcium carbonate) at the end of dyeing. This will "bloom" and enrich the color. Add chalk to the silk or wool dyebath only after dying is completed and you turn off the heat. In this way the calcium won't harm the fiber. Let the dyebath cool overnight, rinse the next day.

This weld was very fresh and strong! Dyed my cotton 8/2 and 16/2 wonderful shades of deep lemon yellow and mossy greens. Came in a lovely package (thank you for your info sheet and paper blessing). Will definitely be back for more weld- great seller!
