Receta: Textile Color, with Walnut Hulls

Warm Brown

Preparation: The fabric should be washed as hot as possible. I.e. wool and silk with wool detergent at approx. 30°C and cotton and linen at up to 90°C.

Put the washed, damp fiber into the mordant bath and leave it for 12 hours or even longer. Move gently from time to time. Rinse well and place still damp in the prepared dye bath.

Procesamiento

Paso 1: Soak 100 g of dried Walnut Hulls (#37300) covered in water for about 12 hours.
Paso 2: Fill up with 4-5 l of water. Heat to about 90°C and hold the temperature for about one hour. Leave to cool and strain.
Paso 3: Place the husks in a dye bag and put them back into the dye bath. Add the textile fiber to the cooled dye bath and slowly re-heat to 70°C. Leave the bath to cool down again, gently agitating from time to time.

Depending on the intended color shade, the fabric can rest in the bath even longer but should still be moved once in a while.

Paso 4: Either dry unwashed and rinse afterwards or rinse and wash immediately. The oxidation process while drying helps to fix the dye.

Nota

Dyeing Results: The type of mordant as well as treatment duration have a decisive influence on the dyeing result. Our recipes always aim at the full color shade. Corresponding lighter shades can be achieved by reducing the plant dye and/or diluting the dye bath with water. It is also possible to increase the amount of fabric, but this implies adjusting the quantity of dye bath so that all fibers are covered.

Cleaning: Cleaning pots works best with hot water and citric acid (#64150).
