Natural dyeing with my grandchildren - part 1 - Lupine









I was so excited after my first dye pot with lupines that I wanted to dye more. I was in Finland at my summer cottage with my grandchildren and their friend when road sides were full of lupines. The children were eager to help me to pick the flowers and set up dye pots over the open fire place. Everybody were amazed how beautiful blues we got out of the pots.
