Workshop Initiatie Wol verven

When you come, the warp will be ready for you. The warp is 100% high-quality English wool with a thickness of Nm 16/2 and suitable for use in warp. The warp is 2.75m long and contains 300 threads (the recommended sett is 8 threads/cm for linen weave and 10 threads/cm for twill weave).

We prepare the dye together, you can choose from a wide range of colors. We use so-called acid dyes (suitable for dyeing wool, silk, etc.). Acid dyes are very economical, they react quickly with the fibers and are very colorfast.

Afterwards, take the chain with you, rinsed but still wet. It still needs to dry at home.

If desired, you can purchase black wool of the same quality to use as weft. This comes in strands of 750m length and one strand is sufficient for the weft of your self-dyed warp.
