10:00am-3:00 pm EST - A live zoom hands-on workshop! The workshop begins with powerpoint and discussion on setting up a gravity ice dye station using a deep tub/basin/sink and a rack to fit over your basin. Following lecture, discussion, demonstration, partcipants will ice dye two to three 4.5 yards of prewound warps using fiber reactive dyes/soda ash with guided support. Addition topics discussed include information from my new published ice dyeing workshop monograph, colors and dye intensities, samples, and applications to weaving.
