Ecoprints and natural dyes

​Ecoprinting is a slow sustainable textile dyeing process.

Foraging for the dye plants locally is a mindful slow process.

The fabric is first cleaned and pre-treated so it can absorb the natural pigments and tannins from the plant materials. Then leaves are applied and steamed against the fabric.

There are no added harmful chemicals, and a low environmental impact.

The  textiles are made in small batches., and each has unique variations in colour, and pattern.
