Silk thread Dyeng


One of my new experiments
is to dye my own threads.


With special colors 


and the help of a dedicated 
microwave


 Silk can't go over 85°, 
so it was a bit tricky to find the right setting of the oven
( I might have fund it though)


It is a beautiful technique, 
but remember is quite difficult to control the shades totally, 
as dyeing is more like an alchemy!
