About this event

We’re going to use real flowers and their pigment to create flower patterned socks!


Everyone will receive their own pair of mordanted bamboo socks and full access to all of Vive Textile's natural dye flowers grown here in Bend.


Everything is provided, including snacks and beverages. Come listen to music, discuss all things natural dye and design your own flower-filled socks to wear all year long.

About Vive Textiles

"I discovered the concept of natural dyeing and eco printing just last year. Despite being a little late to the game, it has absolutely captivated me. It generates a constant mindfulness of my surroundings and an appreciation for nature (and science) on a deeper and slower level. I enjoy incorporating local PNW foliage in honor of our beautiful town. Each piece is wearable art; it tells an individual story of a plant’s journey through life. By the process of botanical printing and dyeing, it then lives forever on beautifully soft textiles. Its story becomes permanent. Revived."
