Furthering the "Better Living through Dyeing" Philosophy, I bought a carrots for leaves; ate a carrot and felt healthier, saving the feathery green leaves in the freezer I can accumulate enough for a dye bath
On the way up Albion Ridge, I stopped by the side of the road to gather some much-maligned Scotch Broom for dye, and of course, after walking a bit, I
felt healthier.
I saved the flowers and some of the tops green leaves and stems and covered them with water. I will wait a couple of days and watch for changes before steeping for an hour.
Scotch Broom Cytisus scopanius, Use the flowers + green stems with an alum mordant. That should produce a
yellow or yellow/green on animal fibers.
