Oooh! I have some brazilwood out in my studio that I have soaking in alcohol. I haven’t gotten around to doing any mordanting yet, and Ravelry has been taking up ALL my spare time, but this is a good post to motivate me!
I love the clear method of keeping records of the dyeing. I might just have to adopt this!
