This is another Christmas project-a 3 colour gradation on a natural silk Indio.
At first I planned to use acid dyes because of the silk blend ; but then I decided to have a go with Dharma`s procion mx dyes; the silk amount is only 30%, therefore with the use of acid dyes contrast between the two types of threads might have been too striking. I thought with this wrap concentrating on proper dyeing of cotton threads would work better.
So here it is, Monsoon Flowers gradation which is going to live in a very warm, very southern climate, where monsoons tear flowers:)
