Beautiful slideshow will take you through the traditional process of dyeing yarn purple with Murex in Oaxaca, Mexico. (Found this while inspired by my Colors book, even though I haven’t gotten to purple yet. I did learn in my blacks and browns chapter that, similar to the Murex process, the color sepia comes from ink excreted by a cuttlefish.)
The slideshow is captivatingly beautiful and very informative. Thanks. After reading your previous post, I have taken a look at the V. Finlay book and am looking forward to more of your color explorations and findings.
Glad you enjoyed it! I thought it was beautful too.
