Tinted paper will be supplied by the instructor. Please bring a bag lunch, a small (18 x18” is good) drawing board with handle, a small set of hard and soft graphite pencils, pencil sharpener and eraser. A 9” x 12” sketchbook is a must.

Join us to naturally dye a one of a kind scarf. We’ll use fresh eucalyptus leaves to create a unique pattern on a wool gauze scarf. Through the magic of eco dyeing, the leaves impart their color to the cloth. In the morning session you’ll put your scarf together, place them in the dye bath and we’ll talk about the process. While the scarves are dying you’ll have a break from 11:00 a.m to 1:30 p.m. to have lunch and Shop the Block. Return to CALC at 1:30 p.m. and we’ll remove the scarves from the bath and have the” big reveal”.
