Dye day!

The shop I bought the Alkana from, said it dyes gray-blue. One of my books says grey..

Welp, I'll see!

Alkana is boiling

SW Merino is simmering in alum and cream of tartar (for a poncho for one of my nieces)

And some hand spun lace wight I'd like to knit together, so I need to have some sort of color that works well together (it's on skein tussah silk, on kid mohair and one camel/silk pre dyed with acid dyes) (these are still just watering)

Before you comment that I should be using tannins if I want the colors to last in the sun, please check out my newest video:

Mordanting Cotton With vs Without Tannin -

• Mordanting Cotton With...

In this video I use 6 mordanting methods on cotton fabric and then dye the fabric pieces with 4 natural dyes. You will see the mordanting process and the results. I also performed a light/wash fastness test on the dyed fabrics to see how the colors last.

Blog post with photos of the results and descriptions of all mordanting methods: https://www.chromaticnatureclothing.c...

Mordant ingredients I used:

Aluminum Acetate - https://www.chromaticnatureclothing.c...

Aluminum Lactate - https://www.chromaticnatureclothing.c...

Alum (Potassium Aluminum Sulfate) - https://chromaticnatureclothing.com/p...

Sodium Acetate - https://chromaticnatureclothing.com/p...

Bring a Rapist to Justice (1)

The following spell enables the victim of a rapist to extract justice and perhaps to obtain a measure of closure. It is not necessary to know the identity of the rapist in order to cast the spell. Although it may be perceived as a vengeance spell, this is actually intended more as a prevention spell---to prevent this person from repeating [their] crimes.

Create a penis-shaped candle[*] or purchase one.

Carve it as desired (although it must be left intact enough for you to burn it), with as much identifying information as possible.

Hold the candle and charge it with your goals and desires prior to dressing, because it may not be safe to hold the candle afterwards. (If you prefer, use plastic gloves.) Visualize the candle, and by extension the organ it represents, shrinking, melting, flopping over, and unable to remain erect once the candle is lit.

Dress the candle with a combination of Essence of Bend Over and Tabasco sauce.

Roll the candle in a dish of powdered alum.

Burn the candle: in the old days, one would now turn one’s back on the candle and depart, however in the interest of fire safety as well as reinforcing the spell with added visualization, remain with the candle and observe the wax melt and shrink.

Be very, very careful not to touch your eyes, mouth, or any sensitive areas before washing your hands extremely well. Traditionally this spell is performed outside and is considered most potent when done in a cemetery. However, it may also be done in your backyard or if, under the circumstances, you are not comfortable traveling alone outside at night, perform it in the bathroom.

[The spell immediately above may be dedicated to Hecate, Eurasian Mistress of the Crossroads and Queen of Witches. Hecate was the sole spirit to come to Demeter’s aid, after the rape and abduction of her daughter, Persephone. When Persephone was finally located in Hades and was forced to stay there part of the year, Hecate decided to remain with her, serving as her handmaiden.

Hecate is believed to witness every crime and may be appealed to for justice. She particularly despises rape and crimes of violence against women and children. Incorporate a petition to her in the spell above or by-pass that spell for a direct approach. She accepts petitions during the Dark of the Moon and on the last day of each month. October 31st is a particularly potent day to call her.]

[*You likely can perform an equivalent version of this spell using a vulva-shaped or a figure candle as well.]

On February 23, 1981, a spontaneous memorial celebration of the life of Frederic E. "Freddie" Fox '39, the Keeper of Princetoniana, took place behind Princeton University's Nassau Hall. At least 100 undergraduates sang songs in a cold drizzle while wearing makeshift armbands of orange crepe paper.

Stevia is a naturally 'sweet' way to create a neutral palette, and if you're lucky, a green dye for your textile and craft projects. And, as long as we are looking for green in spring, why not try stinging nettles one more time from the PNW? This tutorial will show you how to brew stevia and nettles for dye, as well as the resulting color swatch samples (cotton & silk) with a soy milk & alum mordant.
