Hello All,
I am trying to dye some reed for basket weaving and would like to use natural dyes. I experimented with coffee and wine so far but want more options.
Has anyone use cinnamon as a dye? If so, what color did you achieve? What about purple grapes? I have read they will give you a light blue effect but I am suspicious.
I realize most people dye fabric or yarn but think that my reed will take on the same colors.
Thank you in advance!
