Small batch, hand dyed, thread using Hopi black sunflower seeds.
Hopi black sunflowers have been carefully bred and selected over many centuries by Native Americans, including the Hopi, for dyeing baskets and yarn.
The dye from Hopi sunflowers is very sensitive to changes in pH and this has been used to create a soft beige which goes very well with the purples of the full Hopi range.
Naturally dyed colours last longer if they are kept out of direct sunlight.
3g wool/silk thread on a wooden spool.
Packaged in a labelled glassine envelope.
