Dappled St. John's Wort
Dappled St. John's Wort
This color was created over-dyeing a skein of Indigo with St. John’s Wort I gathered from one of my favorite walking paths.
Naturally dyed sashiko threads made by hand in Sonoma County, California. Honey Folk thread is hand-dyed from a combination of ethically sourced and sustainably wild harvested botanical materials such as flowers, herbs, weeds, fallen leaves, pruned branches, berries & such. This thread is a lovely choice for visible mending, boro stitching, sashiko, hand-embroidery, cross-stitch, tassels, pom-pons, gift wrapping, & more! Uneven coloring & gentle fading is just one of the magickal characteristics of botanical dyes.

It's best to store naturally dyed thread out of constant direct sunlight as fading may occur.
Care for garments or linens after mending: When needed hand or machine wash gently in cold water. Hang to dry out of direct sunlight. Excess dye residue may occur.
