This year I've developed a fun new Natural Dye workshop, Naturally Dye a Rainbow!

I love rainbows, and it's so much fun to dye them. First you will choose where you want your indigo to be, and where your rainbow will be.

I've dyed up three samples to show you different ways the rainbow can be dyed which you can see clearly on the second image.

The bottom skein was tied so 2/3rds was indigo dyed and 1/3 not, this is my 'standard' rainbow!

The middle skein had 3 resists tied evenly-ish around which ends up with 6 rainbow sections, I refer to this as 'Too Many Rainbows'

The top skein was twist dyed, meaning the yarn was twisted up and dyed, this one is my 'Rainbow Cloud'

You can dye your rainbow any way you wish of course! You will apply ties to your yarn and it'll get dipped in the prepared Indigo Vat, then we'll prepare the extracts for hand painting, and you'll get painting!

They'll be red, orange, yellow, green (which is achieved by overdyeing indigo with yellow) brown, black, and all going well a light pink

Saturday July 25th 12:30pm - 4:30pm

Our beloved sister store, Paula - Baaad Anna’s Yarn Store is closed for inventory, but we are OPEN!

Why are we sister stores? What are sister stores?

Baaad Anna's is owned by the fabulous Paula, aka, the Baaad!

Baaad Rabbits is owned by Paula and Rebecca, aka the rabbit!

So of course we love each other but we are separate businesses.

Do we have different stock? Yes! We both stock staples like Cascade 220 and Heritage, but we both offer a different range of commercial and hand dyed yarn, more yarn, more fun!

Baaad Rabbits is close to 22nd SkyTrain station, and we have free parking round the back! And yes, you can enter and exit by the back door, look for the blue wall!
