Lac- Lacca natural color extract

A natural color extract with a very high color content, which is made from the resin secreted by the lac aphid . In small amounts, Lacca gives various reddish colors such as pink, purple and burgundy, the shades of which can be obtained by adjusting the sensitively modified pH.

Dyeing should start with a small amount, e.g. 4% for a 100g skein, i.e. 4g, and add color if necessary, but a maximum of 8g (8%) for a 100g skein of yarn. The color dissolves best in hot water, from which it should be mixed in a larger container. Dyeing temperature 80-85 degrees. It is worth using the after-colours, which are lighter

Remember to unwind the threads either before dyeing or during dyeing.

Remember to use protective equipment when coloring, the colors are not toxic, but are very fine.
