Its dyeing indigo, just plain indigofera "sludge" that has been dried out. You grind the cake into powder in a mortar and pestle in order to use it to dye in a fermentation vat. Its a pain though so I haven't dyed anything with indigo in a long time.

Mamaselena · 09-24-2007, 11:00 AM

even a couple teaspoons

i can trade for soap, are you in a hurry LOL
pm me your address and I will do my best to get it to you soon!

thank you!

Here is the soap I made with a touch of the indigo

I made another batch with a bit more... but I haven't taken a picture yet. I REALLY wanna go whole hog and do one with LOTS of blue but I haven't had a chance yet

I call it ocean song... because the scent blend really smells kinda salty and fresh and the blue swirl

Thanks SO much Trish! I will get you some soap in the mail in the next week

Oops, I was wrong. What I have is something else.
