The midnight teal/iron Jordyn Plaid pattern is inspired by weaving remnants of Anni Albers. The yarns are hand dyed with a mix of botanical and mineral dyes.

We achieve our midnight teal color with a mix of myrobalan flower, indigo, pomegranate, and iron. The black is iron dyed - ferrous sulfate achieved from burning scrap metal and soaking it in Jaggery, a sugar water solution - the same process historically used to make India ink. The tan comes from the Acacia tree.

The yarns are then handwoven in this complex weave that incorporates a textural, small herringbone into the pattern.
