Dyes and the right cloth — Weavers · The Makers
At the Dye Yard of Thistle Mill, Dyer Ola shows how colour comes from nature. Then travellers ask which cloth suits their journey.
Your task
Pick the best choice at each step.
- In many places, people made dyes from plants such as indigo leaves, madder root and onion skins. Cloth was also chosen to suit the weather.
- Invented guild stories to learn from. Never try fire, hot metal, glass, blades or power tools on your own: crafts like these are learned with a trained adult.
- Every craft came from many people in many places. Nothing about you is collected.
Score
- Craft knowledge — You understood how this craft works.
- Making it well — You put the steps in a sensible order and used the right tools.
- Care for people & planet — You kept people safe and used materials wisely.
In real life
People in many cultures have dressed for their climate for thousands of years, from light linen in hot places to thick wool in cold ones.
