Product Details:

New Indigo Starter Kit
Kit contains indigo, soda ash, thiourea dioxide, pH strips, gloves, mask and instruction booklet.  It's enough to make 1 quart of stock solution, which will dip 2-5 pounds of fiber, depending on how dark the blue is dipped. People love this kit because it's just enough for them to sample whether or not they want to really get into indigo. The only thing that is NOT in the kit is the alkali to make the stock solution, which is lye (sodium hydroxide).  We cannot ship this via UPS or air.  You can obtain it at the hardware store (100% lye) or order it from soap-making supply houses.

Expanded and updated these popular kits to include the Colors Collection, Indigo Blues, and Reds: Roots, Bark & Bugs.  Each kit is full of generous amounts of natural dye extracts, raw dye materials, non-toxic mordants and assists, and detailed instruction books that include recipes our secrets for getting beautiful color. There is enough material for dyers, designers or study groups to create almost any hue you can imagine.  These kits will dye over 40 lbs of natural material: yarn, fiber, fabric, paper, wood, tagua nut, grasses and reed. Each kit comes packaged in a reusable box filled with cultural images of textile artisans  from around the world.
