HOW MUCH DYE IS THERE? -------------------------------------- All dyes have been weighed in quantity to match what is needed to dye your 3 samples + dyeable. There will be enough Mordant and Dye after the process for you to dye at least one more small item, if not more, dependent on the size and weight of the item you choose to dye (i.e. there's not enough Mordant or Dye for say a sheet, but a small fabric, like a pillowcase or dishcloth, will come out less colorful than your first samples and dyeable, but dyed in a lighter shade surely). The Dye bath will continue giving color until the dye particulates have been fully depleted. This means that you can continue to use it until the bath is not giving enough color to your liking. Important, the Mordant is what makes the Natural Dye adhere to fabric, so be sure to pre-mordant any item(s) you plan on dyeing

It includes dried homegrown sulfur cosmos flowers, an 18” x 22” piece of raw silk, alum acetate for pre-treating your fabric (enough for more than just the included raw silk so you can try your hand on existing garments or linens in your home- painting with natural dyes is one of my favorite ways to revive and breath new life into old dingy or stained garments), guar gum (a natural agent to thicken your flower extraction to make paint), iron salt (ferrous sulfate can widen the palette of the paint to create a whole new family of colors- moody orange, brown and even olive green), and instructions on how to pre-treat your fabric, make paint and bundle dye.
