The Magical Life of a Hand Dyer

My love of fiber began with my introduction to the wonderful art of wet felting, and quickly expanded to experimenting with all other fiber art forms I could imagine. Yearning for earthy, saturated color, I soon began to dye my own fibers for use in my work, which led to the creation of my hand dyed business. 

Everything about the dyeing process delights me! From witnessing the transformation of the fiber, as primary colors combine and emerge as deep, rich hues, to the physical act of dyeing, applying color to fiber, participating in a tradition that has been passed down through the ages to the process of curing the dyes through steaming, where the dyes mix and blend in often beautiful and unexpected ways. Truly magical.

Wonderland Dyeworks developed from my deep-rooted connection and commitment to continuing traditional fiber art forms such as spinning, knitting and felting, and the desire to offer the fiber community unique and rich color palettes. My small fiber arts business specializes in high quality, hand dyed roving, yarn, silk noil, wool felt and other fiber goodies. Created in my Oakland, California studio, each of my small batch, hand-dyed fibers are one-of-a-kind original works of art.  My custom mixed dye palettes tend toward the earthy, saturated variety to tempt and inspire the creative impulses of fabulous fiber communities worldwide. 

Thanks for supporting indie hand dyers!

Be well,

Elissavet
