Indigo Dye Kit by The Love of Colour

Have you always wanted to try indigo dyeing but aren't sure where to begin?  Our beginner friendly kits take the guesswork out, with pre-measured ingredients and comprehensive instructions that guide you through, step by step.

This kit contains the pre-measured ingredients to create one organic fructose vat, with which you can dye quite a bit of fibre - how much a kit will dye depends on a few things, including how dark you want the blue to be, and what fibres you use. But it will dye a lot! As a general ballpark, you could expect to dye several yards of a medium weight cotton such as a quilting cotton, to a medium blue, and probably more, and darker if you wish.

The vat can remain active for a week or longer, depending on how much you use it.

Indigo can be used to dye any natural fibres, not synthetics.  You can dye fabric, yarn, garments, wood, anything that you like, and any fibre, such as cotton, linen, wool, silk, bamboo, rayon, hemp, etc.  A small amount of synthetic fibre content such as 5% spandex in a garment, or 5% nylon in a sock yarn, is no problem.
