Tips for Working with Dyed Reed
Before weaving, we recommend wiping each strand with a damp paper towel to remove any excess dye and prevent color transfer. Soak the reed in warm water for 10–15 minutes to increase flexibility, then keep it wrapped in a damp cloth while weaving. Dye lots may vary between shipments — please order enough for your entire project to ensure color consistency.
