Summer of Making: Knit Heirlooms Using Natural Dyes

I have long been admiring Leya’s work, her sense of color and style, and her botanical dyeing wisdom! When I pitched this idea to Leya and she wholeheartedly agreed to collaborate, my heart may have exploded with excitement and happiness! As it turns out, Leya has been dreaming of publishing her own book, too - so this project is a dream come true for both of us!

So, what is in this book?

• six summer designs (knitting patterns): two child-sized garments, two child-sized accessories, one adult garment, and one adult accessory;

• children’s sizes will range from 6 months to 5 years old

• adult sizes will range from 32”/81cm to 60”/152cm bust

• an introduction to natural dyeing - everything you need to know about how to get started

• and for those not new to it, information and tips Leya has gleaned from her own dye practice

• deepening your connection to your natural surroundings with how to's and notes on respectful foraging, with a focus on seasonal plants and working with summer's bounty

• a dozen dye recipes for a beautiful, earthy natural summer palette

• bonus content you will love - we promise!
