Good day and welcome to The Art Alchemist's Guild.
This is a dark place.
Most art will leave you feeling inspired, maybe even joyful — if not a little thoughtful. Not this art.
Most art makes people better, but this place can only make you worse, poorer, stained, and consumed by the craft.
All flavors are welcome to:
Be kind
Do onto others with kindness, curiosity and civility.

Just playing around with some pre-reduced indigo to dye some muslin fabric and wool yarn. If I'd followed instructions I would have use thin cotton fabric and soaked the fabric a couple of hours before hand for a more uniform result.
That's really cool, the yarn looks lovely. Did the ruffled piece produce the stiped cloth on the right of the curtain rod?
Yes! I folded the cloth accordion style and then did a basting stitch through all the layers and sinched it together tightly using cotton string. Thank you so much for the compliment :)
