Workshops, artisan demos and tours with indigenous women artisans to bring traditionally allow for an extra income which supports our artisans’ handmade textiles to the global marketplace. We empower families to reach a more sustainable livelihood. By offering women artisans, their families, and their communities local services and products through the tours we raise through fair trade, ethical tourism and social programs. awareness of the local culture and strengthen the artisans’ entrepreneurial ecosystems. Fair Trade In collaboration with local artisan partners, we create one of a kind, handcrafted fair trade products including bags, accessories and housewares. We work with socially conscious wholesalers, retailers, and designers who respect the constraints of working with small scale, fair trade production. The textiles used in our collections and partners’ designs are entirely produced on traditional backstrap looms. This deliberate and detailed creation of fabrics produces creations light or heavy, smooth or textured with endless color combinations. social PROGRAMS Artisan Development - Many of the artisans we partner Lake Atitlán with did not have the opportunity to receive a formal education. By providing our artisans with the necessary training to increase capacity and build self-sufficiency, we foster pro-active artisans, able to conduct business in a larger marketplace Youth Education - This program offers economic support through education scholarships and invests in OUR IMPACT the personal and professional development of students.

The equipment needed is light and extremely portable and the apparatus can be set up almost anywhere. This is essential because most artisans balance many duties including raising children, maintaining the home, and earning a living through weaving. Standard liso textiles woven by our artisans partners are approximately 16.5W x 90L and ikat textiles are 16.5W x 75L. TECHNIQUES: Maya Traditions textiles are produced on a backstrap loom, and therefore cannot be made by the yard. Due to the constraints of these small looms, most textiles measure between 16.5’’ and 23’’ wide. These are re- ferred to as Lienzos (canvas in English). Liso Liso, which means smooth in Spanish, refers to a textile without bro- cade, ikat dying, or embroidery. The liso technique can be used to create pattern and color variations by using mezclia threads (2 single threads of different colors combined to create marbling) or employing the maya technique – which creates horizontal dashes through manipulation of the weft. Randas Randas are a traditional method used to overcome the relatively nar- row width of backstrap woven textiles. Randas use an embroidery thread to stitch two or more lienzos together to increase the width of the final piece. Both functional and decorative, randas add a special touch to any textile. 3 +502 7762 2829 � [email protected] traditional backstrap weaving Ikat with Natural Dyes These designs are created using specially-dyed, two tone threads. The artisans begin the process by tying knots onto warped threads, which are then plunged into natural dye baths. When the threads have been dyed and dried, the knots are removed revealing the designs, then the threads can be woven into a textile. Artisans use locally sourced plants and insects to create dye baths that they apply to cotton or rayon threads. They use a banana tree trunk solution to fix the color and help stabilize the dye, ensuring the color will never run. Brocade Brocade is similar to embroidery but it takes place as the weaving is being created. Artisans meticulously integrate thread with each pass of the weft, creating a slightly raised design on the surface of the fabric. Petatillo An enhanced loom is used to isolate certain threads and when woven, create textured, box-like designs that resemble brocade. Cruzetas A technique which creates a lighter textile, generally made with rayon thread, resulting in a smooth, soft fabric perfect for scarves. Cruzetas add textural interest and are created on an enhanced backstrap loom with open weave elements.

It is only recently (the first artificial dye was invented in 1857) that the textile industry has turned to synthetic dyes. Today, many craftspeople are rediscovering the joy of achieving colour through the use of renewable, non-toxic, natural sources. Natural dyes are inviting and satisfying to use. Most are familiar substances that will spark creative ideas and widen your view of the world. Try experimenting. Colour can be coaxed from many different sources. Once the cloth or fibre is prepared for dyeing it will soak up the colour, yielding a range of results from deep jew- el-like tones to dusky heathers and pastels.

  • Watercolors, Facepaint, Tie-Dye, and More!
    Playing with Plant Pigments: Watercolors, Facepaint, Tie-Dye, and More! Have you ever cooked with beets to find that your fingertips and cutting board are stained a vibrant red? Or maybe your favorite white coffee mug has a brown tint to the inside? If so, you’ve already experienced a plant pigment! There are some simple but magical techniques you can use to harness the brilliant colors found in plants - including the very ones found in your fridge. These pigments are easy to source, a ton of fun to experiment with, and a great way to use up some less-than-fresh produce. They are also an excellent alternative to harsh chemical dyes. Materials - Richly-pigmented food like: beet skins (pink), avocado peels and pits (pale pink), onion skins (yellow-orange), purple cabbage leaves (purple-blue), spinach (green), black beans (blue, believe it or not!), turmeric (golden yellow) - Saucepan - Strainer or slotted spoon Directions 1. Gather your pigmented ingredients. You’ll want at least one chopped cup of each item to create a deeply-saturated dye. 2. Add the chopped ingredients to a saucepan, and cover with twice as much water as the fruit or vegetable. Place over medium heat, and simmer for one hour. You can have multiple pots simmering at the same time. 3. Keep in mind: if you plan to dye fabric, you’ll want to make sure you have enough dye for the fabric item to float freely while it picks up color. When in doubt, make more dye than you think you need (which means you’ll need to use more fruits and vegetables).

  • Natural Dye for Easter Eggs Printable Instructions
    Natural Dye for Easter Eggs We use all sorts of plants to dye wool yarn, many that are found growing at Hale Farm and Village throughout the seasons. For coloring eggs, you can use things from the grocery store, like blueberries, onion skins, and spices. Most make soft colors, while a few can be surprisingly bright. Experiment by mixing colors, or use the procedure below to try making dye from something that is not on our list. Result can be interesting!Check the jars as the color develops, and you will see bubbles collecting on the surface of the eggs. The vinegar is an acid, and reacts with the calcium carbonate of the eggshell to produce calcium acetate and carbon dioxide gas. The bubbles leave white spots on the egg, and colors may take unevenly, both part of natural dye designs. As you rinse the egg, rub the dark residue away to reveal the pale color beneath. For the first time you try dyeing eggs with natural color, consider choosing just one dye material as you learn how it’s done. Onion skins give the most reliable color for a variety of beautiful golden eggs to add to your basket. dyestuff amount color onion skins skins from 6 onions gold blueberries 1 cup fresh or frozen pale blue or grey turmeric 2 t. in sachet* yellow spinach 2 handfuls pale green beets juice from 1 can; 3 slices, chopped pale purple or pink chili powder 2 T in sachet* pale orange red cabbage 1 c. shredded pale blue coffee 1 c.

  • Using Natural Dyes
    DAILY LIFE IN A MISSION Teacher Information: Using Natural Dyes Background: Long before the Spaniards arrived in North America, the indigenous people had used many plants and mineral materials as dyes and stains. Some of the earliest cave paintings were made with natural dyes. The paintings derived from mineral stains have retained the greater color. The ones that have faded to “ghost paintings” (barely visible) are believed to have been made from organic materials. From the late sixteenth through the mid-nineteenth centuries, both Spaniards and Native Americans experimented with native plants to produce dyes that could be used on the wool of Spanish sheep. One of the most notable dyes was cochineal. This red dye is made from the bodies of small insects (Dactylopeas coccus) that feed on prickly pear (Opuntia species). The insect can be scraped from the prickly pear pad; and then by pressing the insect firmly against the side of a dye pot, the dye is released. The Aztecs collected tribute (payment) from tribes they conquered. Cochineal was part of this payment. As red dye had been difficult to produce, Spain continued this tribute system and exported the dye to Europe. (Among other things, the dye was used to make red fabric for British soldiers’ jackets in the 18th and 19th centuries.) European fabric found its way back to the Americas where it was unraveled and rewoven by the Navajo to make blankets. Blankets containing this wool are now very rare and valuable. Pigments cause the color in plants. Pigments can work alone or in combinations to produce color.

For this purpose, cotton and wool fabrics were treated with willow extract for 24 h, at room temperature. The pretreated samples were dyed with S. trojana extract in the presence of three mordants including alum (AlK(SO4)2·12H2O), ferrous sulfate heptahydrate (FeSO4·7H2O) and copper sulfate pentahydrate (CuSO4·5H2O) and using three mordanting methods (pre-mordanting, meta-mordanting and post-mordanting). Fastness properties (rubbing and light) were also determined. Generally, high fastness values were obtained. The color strength values of the wool fabrics were found to be higher than that of cotton fabrics. It is concluded that, S. trojana ehrend has affinity to the wool fabrics, and can be used as an alternative source in the presence of willow extract in natural dyeing. Keywords - Sideritis trojana ehrend, mordant, dyeing, fastness, wool, cotton 1. Introduction Natural coloring agents have been used since beginning of the time to color wool, silk, cotton and leather [1].

K. Gaikwad Department of Botany, Shivaji University, Kolhapur 416004, Maharashtra, India. Received – November 15, 2019; Revision – December 30, 2019; Accepted – February 05, 2020 Available Online – February 25, 2020 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.18006/2020.8(1).54.62 KEYWORDS ABSTRACT Dye yield Coconut is used throughout worldwide in various rituals, festivals and in food. A huge amount of unused parts of coconut such as fibrous husk and shells are thrashed every day. The present study RSM illustrates the sustainable use of fibrous husk as a source of natural dye. Hence, in order to improve the Box-Behnken approach dye yield, various dye extracting factors were optimized with the help of statistical software. The RSM based Box Behnken approach for optimization was found effective which increases dye yield up to 37%. Fibrous husk The analysis of the model implies that the model fits well for all the four factors and found to be significant. All the factors M: L ratio, temperature, Time and pH were found influential in the dye extracting process. The system also helps to improve the yield for desired pH to obtain multiple hues. The optimized parameters to improve dye yield were M:L ratio of 1:130, temperature 80°C, time 250 minutes, pH 9.3. * Corresponding author All the articles published by Journal of Experimental Biology and Agricultural Sciences are licensed under a E-mail: [email protected] (Indrajeet.
