Finding the Most Ecological Way of Printing .
While printing I have noticed how much ink is used, it didn't take long before I realized I needed an alternative to bought chemical based dyes. Previously I have used naturally dyed yarns so it made sense to create my own inks. Using the natural environment around me to create colours is something that inspires me. We all have a need new processes that will reduce climate warming by reducing carbon emissions. Creating your own natural dyes and inks prevents this, it also reduces the use of packaging and the use of some transport emissions if you buy products. One other reason is that I am hoping the process will be less expensive.
