there is no dye table here, as Marti remembers from N Mex. With Free Goats, it would be impossible. But i 'm hoping that the Janet Chair might somehow work…all day today it did. They all noted it in it's new place where it needs to be so it can be moved through the day, tracking SUN. Noted by smelling it, sometimes liking it, or tasting….same with pot rim and jar…but then just went along. The jar. was in the back, under this tin house, and i guess from 2 years ago? Full of Oak Galls, some moldy, the liquid inky dark. I bundled a, ummm, dress? a cotton household cloth thing…i guess is a night dress? I should have taken a pic. Anyway got it wet and bundled. Tied the string. Stuffed it in and turned jar over and back to soak it. Repeated a few times during the day. It was white. now is brown, that same brown as the dusty dry earth the Goats travel. My hope is to mark it with walnut in a couple months. a Garden dress. camouflage . Today, the "weather" was/is perfect. 90 high 64 low. i feel like Goldilocks.
