I love the way you experiment with natures goods to dye. I know Tansy as a great plant for dying. In german it is called Rainfarn. It also dyes linnen very well. I know from my historical reenactment years. 🙂 We used to make all of our garments and dye them often with plants our medieval ancestors used before. There is also dyer`s weed, which dyes a indigo kind of blue and madder root, for red colour. Nowadays, with the internet, it is a lot easier to get information. Back in the day, we had only books and/ or learnt from others who already were experienced in natural dying.
I love natural dyed yarns and also just the natural colours of the sheep. I often found, that people confuse hand dyed yarns with natural dyed yarns. They think it is natural, but do not realize, that the colours used are chemical.
Can´t wait to see more of your experiments. I also love the way you dress. I adore your dresses, skirts and shoes. I love the way you speak to your animals. So gentle and sometimes with humour. 🙂

Wow! The lichen dyed yarn is amazing. Love the beach walk footage too. ❤

Thank you for a beautifully done video. I always jump with joy when I see a new video ❤

That lichen orange is gorgeous! The bit of work shown at the end is so inspiring. I wish I could gather dye stuffs and do this too.

It's very inspiring to see you learn more and more skills yourself so that you can complete the entire knitting process at home. I hope that one day I can do the same.

Beautiful results! To think such a beautiful color comes from lichen!! And your colorway project is lovely! Thank you for taking us along on this journey.

Thank you again for such a beautiful video.
What a unique beach, perfect for relaxing and knitting, just like in your little cozy room.
Love all the colours, especially the orange one.

Will be collecting lichen from now on🧡🧡😘and dying some fabric. Love your videos. Thanks from Australia in Gippsland 🌿🦜🐦‍⬛👋

Hi Tania,
Those skeins look perfect to me. Look forward to seeing what you design, and thank you for sharing the spectacular views ( including the dog of course 😂)

The rusty orange you were able to achieve with the lichen is absolutely beautiful! I'm so glad thwacking worked for you. Thanks for another wonderful video. Hugs :virtualhug:

Another beautiful and interesting video. The landscape is so beautiful too. I live in the US but I am Dutch and Tansy in Dutch is called Farmer’s Worm Herb. Apparently it helps excellent for worms in men and animal…I personally think the word Tansy is so more beautiful and the colors turned out great! Thank you Tania for a moment of peace and rest. 🙏❤️

What beautifully autumnal colors!  And that yolk is stunning!

Such inspired and beautiful work - very grateful you share 🌞

Gosh that end yoke was gorgeous.  Can’t wait to see more of the project.   Really enjoyable video.  I loved the yellow but all the colours are stunning.

Beautiful videos and colours! Thanks for sharing.

I’m listening to the book “The Searcher” , by Tana French. It takes place in an Irish village. I imagine the beautiful landscape from your videos.

The rain at the end was so good to hear. I’m in the states and it was 90 today, I’m so looking forward to walking my two dogs wearing a wool sweater and hand knit socks.

That tansy bath turned out just beautiful

Oh my - such a lovely video and those colors are amazing

Thank you so much for sharing Tania. Such stunning scenery and you're never short of rainwater it seems. ❤
