This is a 2-hour class during which we will harvest indigo from the field, learn to process the plant and make an ice bath to dye materials with. We will answer questions and provide tips for growing your own indigo at home. This is a casual bring-your-own dyeable materials class, but the indigo will be provided. See below for recommended material and sources.

Recommended Materials:
