Dried Marigold Flower

These beautiful giant marigolds are lovingly grown here on our Vermont, USA property. Once harvested, the heads strung up to dry in our greenhouse.

Marigolds work best on silk or wool fiber, but also come out just fine on cotton. They are organically grown, and safe to touch and dye with.

The amount of marigold, or any natural dye, is based on the weight of what you are dyeing. This is known as the 'weight of fiber' or abbreviated WOF. The amount of dye stuff is expressed as a percentage of WOF. In the case of marigolds, the recommendation of 20 - 30% dried marigold to WOF.
