Hi, here are some pics of the results of the mulberry pulp dyed fabrics, cotton became pale blue, pure wool is a wonderful dark reddy brown purplie colour, and silk is a very nice purplie pink. The photo shows the threads I chucked in the dye bath too, they will be incorporated into a stitched piece at some stage. The second photo shows my collection of sun dyeing jars, two have a eucalypt dye, one the residual mulberry dye and one residual lilly pilly dye. All have threads and small pieces of silk and wool fabrics.. I really have a problem with discarding dye water that still may contain enough dye to colour threads and bits..
