Three yards or so of hemp/cotton knit soaking in Buddleia. It's been there overnight.
This is the second soaking, the first in soy milk.
I will wring it out and hang it to dry today.
And then, perhaps, a dip in my almost exhausted indigo vat? Or maybe iron water? I have some made but have yet to try it. Or maybe a bit of both for comparison? Or maybe a stencil with the iron?
I want to make a dress with this but it will need some mending or strategic cutting. I was using it on my bed as a sheet.
Knit is not a great choice for kneading kittens.
And, shared before but coming to me often right now:
Crepuscular midnight stands by the road,
Where the stars have spilled from it's purse.
You can not go over the road past the fence
Without trampling on the universe.
Boris Pasternak, "The Steppe"
