This winter I have been playing with a basic method from wildcraftdyeing at youtube. I use scoured yarn (mine is handspun) and then mordant by simmering with alum for an hour.
Find some safflower at your local halal market for a pittance. I don't have any weights to recommend (weight of goods or "WOG") .
Then, simmer your yarn at a low simmer for an hour, this is wool.
I was expecring a darker color...maybe orangey. But I am into yellow this year...
