Κόκκινη ρίζα Madder - 100gr

Recipe: Textile Color, with Madder Roots

Red to Red, brownish

Preparation: The fabric should be washed as hot as possible. I.e. wool and silk with wool detergent at approx. 30°C and cotton and linen at up to 90°C.

Put the washed, damp fiber into the mordant bath and leave it for 12 hours or even longer. Move gently from time to time. Rinse well and place still damp in the prepared dye bath.

Processing

Step 1: Add 100 g of Madder Roots (#37201) to about 2-3 l of cold water and let sit for 2 days.

Step 2: Then heat to approx. 70°C and let simmer for one hour. Cool down and strain the solution.

Step 3: Put the roots into dye bags and return them to the bath. Place the damp fabric in the pot and re-heat slowly to a maximum of 70°C and again let simmer for one hour, gently agitating.

Step 4: Remove the textile fiber from the cooled bath. Either dry unwashed and rinse afterwards or rinse and wash immediately. The oxidation process while drying helps to fix the dye.

NOTE

Dyeing Results: The type of mordant as well as treatment duration have a decisive influence on the dyeing result. Our recipes always aim at the full color shade. Corresponding lighter shades can be achieved by reducing the plant dye and/or diluting the dye bath with water. It is also possible to increase the amount of fabric, but this implies adjusting the quantity of dye bath so that all fibers are covered.

Cleaning: Cleaning pots works best with hot water and citric acid (#64150).
