Well, the Dye Everything Purple gathering went very well, except for the one bucket of Moss Green I attempted which seems to have turned a favorite hoodie into an awful khaki (will know more when it comes out of the wash).

Curious if anyone knows much about company dyes and could help me diagnosis a couple issues? One is the Mosstrosity Hoodie, and the other is a cotton canvas hat that failed to take well. Not sure why?

Internets I require assistance (decide for me so I can blame y’all if it doesn’t work🤪)
I pre-soaked the yarn with 70% isopropyl alcohol (not sopping but soaked)
I’ve added my dye (3:1 berry juice to 70%)
It’s been soaking 24 hours ….is that long enough?

Weeded the . The last woad has gone to seed; saved a bunch for later.
The madder is rioting enthusiastically. I may save some seed from that as well. I am thinking of digging up a bit in the fall, to see how it’s doing.
The weld that I’m letting go to seed is drying out nicely. I already harvested some, and there are cute wavy-leaved rosettes for next year. Its ancestors came from @tstooth
I left the dyer’s chamomile for the bees this year.

@Bjorntall Looking forward to more of the 🧵! & hoping perhaps to learn more about the original ? I'm wondering if each colour was locally available, or imported?

bugs were the main source of red dye back in Colonial times. "The Redcoats Are Coming" were really "guys in coats dyed in cactus bugs" are coming. research.colonialwilliamsburg.

It's a beautiful day today.
Today I'm going to stay inside & beat the heat until the evening (I need to harvest more garlic).
I will be forced to do house cleaning, but I also have goals to make:
- Mulberry leaf
- Elderflower champagne
- mayo
- Ladyfingers
(Reader, I might do 1 of these!😂)

, also called , is a pigment of a bright-red color obtained from the aluminium complex derived from carminic acid.

Synthetic carminic acid is complex to produce. Therefore, natural cochineal carmine is predominant on the market.

To prepare carmine, powdered scale insect bodies are boiled in an ammonia or sodium carbonate solution. may be added to modify the precipitation.

To obtain 1 pound of red dye, one needs 70,000 cochineal bugs.

Sometimes "natural" means made out of bugs (better that than some petroleum product) 🙂

Microscopes are so much more fun than telescopes. Microscopes let you explore any time of day, stay warm and mosquito-free, and find completely new surprises each time. Telescopes are the opposite of all those things.

Here's a picture of some crystallized saffranin with a tiny bit of dead skin. I think it looks kind of like a rose on a bed of thorns.
