Class 3 History- dying clothes naturally the Viking way.

Date: 19th Oct 2022 @ 10:49am

Did you know that the Vikings dyed their clothes using natural plant dyes. We investigated dying clothes using beetroot, red cabbage and turmeric. We were surprised by some of the results!

We used salt as a fixative so the dye would not run out.
