Learn how to print using the Bundle & Steam method to capture colour from botanicals . The WOW reveal brings bonus joy
We are delighted to be part of the inaugural Eden Wool Gathering
These workshops are designed to give you a taster to this craft and are shorter than our usual ones delivered in our studio in Kirkcudbright -we do these monthly
What is Eco Printing?
It's an environmentally friendly vibrant form of printing that uses natural organic materials bundled up in cloth. The 'bundle' is then steamed, capturing the beautiful colourful essences, giving a unique Eco print. It's low impact and zero waste. We will be using foraged leaves and flowers, all which can be composted.
What will we do?
Rose Petal, your tutor, will guide you step by step through the whole process from preparing your pre felt Shetland wool, sharing which botanicals deliver great colour, how to tie up and steam your bundles to fixing your colour. After steaming your bundle, we will unwind it and have the grand WOW reveal. Be warned, it's addictive!
