MANGO+AVOCADO+BANANA LEAVE DYES

Mango, banana, and avocado leaves all sourced from the Philippines, all taken from my familial homes in Ilocos Norte, Philippines.
All leaves were soaked in water for 24 hours before being boiled.

 In order to attain a more muted colour, I used 250 ml of water mixed with 5 ml of dye. I left the fabric and yarn samples in the dye jars to boil for about 30 minutes, and left the fabric and yarn swatches in the jars over night.




♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

Silk blends, cotton trimmings, and tussah wild silk yarn.
