Reclaimed Potables

We separate our finest fiber leftovers and create one-of-a-kind color and fiber blends.  Typically each blend starts with a natural color base with all sorts of tones of colors combined to create a soft overall look. 

Purple Indigo

Like most indigo dyeing, each dye bath will create a spectacular new burst of blues, purples and subtle tones or reds.
