 +The mature black seed husks,when steeped in hot water render a pigment  for dyeing wool. The cooked seed is added to the chicken feed.


 Wisps of colour seeping out of the sunflower seeds.


 The strong purple and the grey/green is derived from the sunflower seeds the yellow from onion skins. The wool is spun by AnneSophie.


 Collecting from the community garden.
