Initial samples - dye


 Colour is important in my work so I have started knitting in cottons and dyeing my knits. I wanted to carry on using the colours from the previous project as well as bringing brighter colours from the Leutton Postle project and powder paint technique.

To improve I now need to mix my own colours out of the dyes to create more individual and unique samples, remembering to record so it is repeatable.

I also feel the samples will fit in with my theme more and be more successful if i focus on using silks and viscose rather than cottons to create drape and lustre.
