A column from the Minnesota Weaver in which Connie Magoffin shares natural dye experiment results sent in by fellow dyers. A chart records dye plant, part used, mordant, resulting color, fiber, fastness, amounts, extraction and dyeing times, and donor for dyes such as spinach, leafy spurge, strawberry, tea, coffee, cranberries, goldenrod, purple iris, onion skin, pine and rhubarb. The first page also carries short notes on yarn suppliers, including the Yarn Depot in San Francisco and revised product information for Craft Yarns of Rhode Island.
