<span style="font-family: arial;"></span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: arial;">V tej poletni vročini sem se pozno popoldne odpravila s kolesom po gozdni poti, ob kateri raste precej vrbovih grmov. Nabirala sem listje, dokler me napadalni komarji niso prisilili k "umiku".</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: courier;">Late in the afternoon in the hot summer weather I took my bike and rode along a forest road with many willow bushes growing by its sides. I collected leaves until aggressive mosquitoes forced me to "retreat".</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: arial;">Listje sem kuhala več ur, dokler se ni res zmehčalo. A voda je bila precej svetla, nekako sivkasta. Bala sem se, da ne bom dobila tiste lepe, močne rumene, ki jo imam v spominu od prejšnjih let.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: courier;">I simmered the leaves for a couple of hours until they softened. But the dyeing bath remained rather light coloured, somehow greyish. I was afraid I would not get the beautiful intense yellow I remembered from previous dyeing sessions.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: arial;"></span><br />

<span style="font-family: arial;">Kako sem se zmotila! Moj strah je bil neutemeljen. Volna iz barvilne kopeli je bila močne, živorumene barve, še precej bolj, kot kaže slika.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: courier;">I could not be mistaken more! My fears were ungrounded. The wool yarn came out of the dyeing bath beautifully intense yellow colour, even much more so than shown in the picture.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: arial;"></span><br />

Na slikah je volna iz prvih dveh barvanj, tretje barvanje ni skoraj nič manj intenzivno, barvala bom še četrtič v isti barvilni kopeli.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: arial;">Vrba - tako skromno drevo, pa tako razkošne barve!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: courier;">The pictures show wool yarn dyed in two successive dyeings in the same dye bath. The third dyeing gave a colour almost equally intense and I'll be able to do a fourth dyeing in the same dye bath.</span></div>
<div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Če drugega ne, je bil tale čas upočasnitve življenja zaradi pandemije pripraven za bolj skrbno vzgojo vrtnih sadik. Poleg nekaj paradižnikov in paprik sejem tudi nekaj barvilnih rastlin, med drugim japonski indigo. Tudi toplo, skoraj vroče vreme je bilo za vzgojo ugodno. Takole sta se lepo razrasli dve sadiki indiga (nas sliki zgoraj), za njima je pa še več manjših sadik.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">If nothing else, this slowdown of all life due to the corona pandemic offered much time for better care of seedlings to be planted in the garden. Beside a few tomatoes and paprikas (sweet peppers) I also sow some dyeing plants including Japanese indigo. The warm, almost hot weather was quite favourable for their growth. The two young plants in the pot (in the picture above) are well grown, followed by several smaller plants.</span></div>

Ker v skledi ni bilo več prostora, so silili kvišku. Sem se spomnila, da poslikam šele potem, ko sem potrgala že precej rozet.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Vsako leto na cvetno nedeljo nesem k blagoslovu butarico in oljčno vejico. Samo letos pa ne ... Še k maši ne morem, razen po spletu ... Pa zelo pogrešam. In se nisem mogla sprijazniti, da ne bi imela butarice, saj imam potem blagoslovljeno oljčno vejico in butarico v kuhinji na vidnem mestu do naslednje cvetne nedelje.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Each Plam Sunday I take a Palm Sunday Bundle and a smallish olive tree branch to my parish church to have them blessed. But not this year ... I can not even attend a mass in a church, only on the internet ... I do miss it badly. I could not resign myself to not have a Palm Sunday bundle, especially not because I'm used to then keep it on a spot in my kitchen until the next Palm Sunday. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Na sprehodu v bližnji gozd sem si narezala vrbove vejice, ob cesti našla lepo cipreso, kjer sem odlomila nekaj vejic. Lesnih ostružkov seveda nisem imela kje dobiti, zato sem sfilcala trakove v živih barvah iz merino volne, ki jo imam od Bog ve kje.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">During a hike to the nearby forest I cut some willow tree twigs. I got some cypress leaves. Of course, I could get no wood shavings so I felted bands of vividly coloured merion wool that has been lyeing around.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Butarice nisem še nikoli delala sama, vedno sem jo kupila. Je bilo kar nekaj izzivov. Ni kakšno remek delo, a sem je zelo vesela! Pa blagoslovila sem jo tudi, seveda, z blagoslovljeno vodo.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I have never made the bundle myself, I have always bought it ready-made. There were quite a few challenges I must admit. Well it is not a master-piece but I love it! And of course I said a blessing prayer over it and sprinkled it with blessee water.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">My son told me he would love a felted flower pot for his birthday. And sent me a photo of a round felted vase from the internet to give me an idea what it should look like. A simple round vessel.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Vsaj pet let že nisem filcala okrogle posode, tako da sem se morala kar pripraviti in obnoviti znanje. Imela sem lepo mikano domačo volno, mešanico bele in temno rjave/črne. Ker je bilo temne več kot po navadi, je barva bolj rjava kot siva. Rumeno-oranžno sem pobarvala sama, a sam Bog ve, s katero rožico.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I haven't made a round felted vessel at least five years so had to renew my knowledge. I had beautiful carded farmer's wool, a mixture of natural white and natural dark brown/black. There was much more dark wool in it than usual so it is more brown than grey. The yellow-orange wool was dyed by me but only God knows with which plant.</span></div>

Natisnila sem jih na svileni šal Pongee08. Prav dobro so se odrezali. Škoda, da je zdaj vse listje že odpadlo z vej, začelo razpadati v večdnevnem dežju in za tisk ni več uporabno. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Podlago sem barvala z vrbo, natisnila sem javorjevo listje. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">Na notranjem šalu prevladuje vrbova barva, odtisi listov so samo nakazani (ginko).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: center;">Spodaj je še nekaj slik šalov.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The leaves from the previous post have already been put to use. I printed them on a silk scarf Pongee08. They performed very well. It's a pity all the leaves have fallen from the branches, started rotting after several days of heavy rains and can not be used for eco printing any more. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The background was dyed with willow on which maple leaves were then printed. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; text-align: center;">On the inner scarf the willow colour dominates and the leaves are just subtly printed (gingco).</span><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; text-align: center;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; text-align: center;">Below are some more pictures of the two scarves.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ko grem mimo kakega drevesa, še lepo obloženega z barvitim jesenskim listjem, si ne morem kaj, da ne bi listov nabirala. Doma jih vložim med liste papirja in obtežim s težkimi knjigami. Tako ostanejo lepo ravni in jih kasneje lahko uporabim za tiskanje. Nekateri listi barvo izgubijo in porjavijo, nekateri pa obdržijo vsaj nekaj barve. Skušala bom vsaj nekaj te barve prenesti </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">na svilo. Če že ne bodo dali barve, bodo pa služili kot šablona in na blagu pustili svoj odtis.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><i>In English:</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I just can't refrain from picking beautiful autumn leaves when I pass by a tree still rich in coloured leaves. I put them between sheets of paper and weight them with large heavy books. In this way they remain flat so I may use them later for eco printing. Some may lose their colours to shift to plain brown but some retain at least part of the colour. I'll try to make them impart their colour to silk fabric. And if not, they will still behave as a resist and produce some print.</span>Ladkahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06804899281049209727noreply@blogger.com1Planina, 4000 Kranj, Slovenija46.2335596 14.36536660000001646.2280676 14.355281600000016 46.239051599999996 14.375451600000016tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030130622342911277.post-77737450362859220422019-04-21T21:43:00.001+02:002019-04-21T22:08:20.787+02:00Velika noč - Easter <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Lubje sem olupila z vejic in razdelila na dva dela in z vsakim poskusila barvati po različnem postopku.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">En del lubja sem namakala nekaj dni, nato sem v vedro s tekočino in lubjem dala štrenico čimžane volnene preje in meter, dva nečimžane. Po nekaj dneh je bila bledo rumene barve - premalo, da bi bila uporabna. Zato sem lubje odcedila, volno pa v barvilni tekočini grela pod vrenjem okrog dve uri in pustila, da se shladi.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Drugi del sem grela okrog dve uri, pustila stati nekaj dni. Bilo je toplo vreme in je začelo fermentirati in seveda smrdeti. Potem sem tudi to precedila in v barvilni tekočini barvala volneno prejo kot s prvim delom lubja.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In rezultat? Prav boren: nekaj bledo umazano rumenega in nekaj bledo sivorjavega :( </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Skratka - ni uspelo...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I was given a bagful of prunings of pawpaw tree </span><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><i>Asimina triloba </i>at </span><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> a gardeners' meeting. I peeled the bark from the twigs, divided it into two portions and tried to dye with it following two different procedures.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">The first portion got a several days soaking after which a skein of alum mordanted wool yarn went into it, and also a few metres of unmordanted yarn. After some days it got pale yellow, not enough for use. I therefore strained the bark and heated the bath with the yarn in it up to simmering for about two hours then let it cool.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I simmered the other portion </span><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">for about two hours and let it stand for some days. As the weather was quite warm the liquid started to ferment and smell. I then strained the bark and proceeded in the same way as with the first portion.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">And the results? Rather poor: something pale dirtyish yellow and something pale greyish brown :(</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">A failure, in short.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This is not a wooly post, true, but it does include St. John's wort which I use for dyeing wool very often.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Za milo sem uporabila ovčji loj, šentjanževo olje in ricinusovo olje, oljčno olje za prebitek maščobe in eterično olje "Antična vrtnica" za odišavljenje.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">To make soap I used mutton fat, St. John's wort oil and castor oil, then added a bit more of olive oil as superfat and "Antique rose" essential oil as fragrance.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Maso sem nalila v naoljene silikonske modelčke, mojo zadnjo pridobitev. Nekaj mase sem nalila v manjši karton od mleka in po enem dnevu ohlajanja razrezala. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Zdaj moram pustiti milu, da zori šest tednov, potem bo pripravljeno za uporabo. Se že veselim!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;"> </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I poured the mixture into oiled silicon moulds, my latest acquisition. I also poured a portion of the mixture into a smaller milk carton container; I cut the latter into pieces after one day of cooling.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Now I have to let the soap to rest and cure for six weeks to make it ready for use. I'm so looking forward to it!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Lani sem nasušila precej šentjanževke, za barvanje, za čaje in za v olje. V suhih cvetovih je bilo kar nekaj žužkov, zato sem jo še zamrznila. Ker je do letošnje sveže še kar nekaj časa, sem to posušeno in zamrznjeno šentjanževo cvetje uporabila za barvanje volne.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Ni mi bilo do vseh odtenkov, ki jih običajno daje šentjanževka. Drugo barvo - rdečerjavo oziroma vijoličnorjavo brez galuna - </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">sem želela</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">izpustiti. In sem barvala 50 g volnene preje, čimžane z galunom. Dobila sem pa ravno to rjavkasto. Ko sem barvala naslednjo štrenico, tudi z galunom, se je barva spet kazala kot rjavkasta. Dodala sem še nekaj galuna, kar v barvilno kopel, česar sicer ne delam, in dobila (sivo)zeleno. Tretja štrenica, spet z galunom, je dala pričakovano rumeno, pa tako nepričakovano živo, da je bila mokra videti kar malo fluorescentna.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Prav nepredvidljivi rezultati. Po dosedanjih izkušnjah in tudi po izkušnjah drugih barvilk bi namreč morala prva barva biti zelena, rjava pa samo na volni brez galuna.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Pa razumi, če moreš! </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "courier new"; line-height: 115%;">Last summer I dried quite a lot of St.
John's wort, for dyeing, teas and for oil extraction. There were several
insects in dried flowers so I put them in the freezer. Since this year fresh
flowers can not be expected very soon I decided to use these fried and frozen
ones for dyeing wool.</span> <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "courier new"; line-height: 115%;">I didn't want all the shades and colours
this plant usually produces. I wanted to leave out the second colour, ie
reddish-brown or violet-brown obtained without alum. So I set to dyeing 50 gram
of alum mordanted wool yarn. What I got was exactly this brownish colour. When
dyeing the next skein the colour shown was again the brownish. I added some
alum in the dye pot, which I don't usually do, to obtain (greyish)green. The
third skein, also alum mordanted, was the expected yellow, but so unexpectedly
bright it was almost fluorescent when wet.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "courier new"; line-height: 115%;">These results were quite unexpected. In
my experience up till now, as well as in that of other natural dyers, the first
colour should be green whereas the brownish would only develop on unmordanted
wool.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "courier new"; line-height: 115%;">Who
could understand the surprises in natural dyeing!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Fotografije seveda slabo prikazujejo te bavne nianse. Slikala sem z osvetljavo z bliskavico in brez, pa nobena ni čisto realna.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Pa še nekaj dodatnih fotografij:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Of course the photos show the colour shades very poorly. I took pictures both with and without a flash, yet none shows the colours right.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Below are some additional pictures.</span><br />
