How to Dye Fabric red, black, blue from brown tubers | Primitive Skills

Hello everyone, my name is Duong.
I am 32 years old.
I live in a poor mountainous area of Vietnam.
From a young age, I had to work hard to help my parents.
Difficult life is always around, I work and learn everything from my grandparents and the old people in the village.
Gradually, I mastered the skills.
5 years ago, I decided to live the challenge.
Determined to learn about the primitive way of life, I chose to live in the wilderness, alone.
Where there's no technology and forcing yourself to pass, it feels great!
How about you? Your life is definitely different from mine.
Have fun watching the video!

To have a good result when dyeing fabric, is good to boil the dye from the tubers and put the fabric into the boiling water so that the fiber on the fabric take on a good color.

[@derrickaustin8273]

And let it soak for a while

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you for comment

[@heatherarthur6232]

I absolutely agree with you👍🏼

[@Rockys-Mum]

Heat setting is needed, that's why the sun dries them.

[@chefbobbysponge3833]

Also we use vinegar to set the colors

[@michellelouise9863]

To think how far your farm has come… very exciting. You should feel really proud of what you’re achieving. It was lovely to see you and your wife working together. Thank you for another great video! ✨

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you so much

[@user-gu3wy7so1g]

Some may not apprecitate your way of f using primitive tools but it shows us that we can survive and do well without them if ff we ever again need to. Thank you, so peaceful a no d beautiful, I enjoy watching the most.

[@bozydarziemniak1853]

Your colours looks so nice. People had to wear similar colours of clothes in the Middle Ages. It is like time travel.

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you

[@ElcioThenorio]

Good! But what about the black one? How did you do that? Was it with grounded charcoal?

[@Rockys-Mum]

Could be black Walnut, iris root, log wood, or oak galls?

[@canonsonico3752]

​@@Rockys-Mummade me think in iron gall ink too

[@unspi554]

Hard to get a black that is as black as one in the video without modern dye.

[@srigunarso7268]

i love your work altogether....

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

thank you so much

[@anndebaldo7381]

Your wife's cabin and farm are beautiful, but I must say that I find your farm more appealing. Perhaps that is because I watched you build everything by hand using old technology, from the first little woven bamboo cottage, to a pond and then all of the other buildings! Congratulations to both of you!

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

THank you so much

[@TheScaryName]

Whenever it comes to natural dyes (as plants), we usually boil them to get the most color out, and even boil the fabric sometimes with the roots/leaves to dye them.

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you, it's nice to hear your comments

[@pillowwantan3226]

Hey Duong, that's not blue, that's green :') All the plants are green, the dye is green, the fabric is green. Blue is the color of the sky :o

[@robinschutt9187]

Hi Doung, Please forgive me for not commenting for a while. You simply amaze me and all that you know and accomplish!!! I still think you could be a consultant for others struggling to get their farms going. You're very skilled. I'm so loving your fabric tasks, and I hope to see you make something with it. 😊 Also, you have some very big fish!!! I was like, wow, I'd like to get one of those cooked up. There would be enough for a small dinner party!! Very beautiful. 😊🥰 Thank you for sharing. ❤

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you, nice to receive your feedback, wish you good health

[@nunosilva187]

For those who build wooden houses like this, make sure to include a small piece of copper wiring between the stone foundation and the wood to drive off termites as well as having the wood treated against humidity. The slant of the balcony roof also should be at a slight angle and not flat to prevent water from siting there and infiltrating into the beams

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you, your shares are very useful to me

[@Odaken_hl]

Olá Duong! Uma dica para tingimentos: quanto mais abaixo do solo estiver a matéria prima, mais durável será a cor. Raízes são ótimas fontes de cor durável; folhas nem sempre dão boa cor. Um detalhe, porém, é que o tanino encontrado nas folhas e cascas são ótimos para fixar as cores que ja estão no tecido. Sal também ajuda a fixar. Alguns óxidos de ferro podem dar cores diversas dependendo da oxidação, desde o marrom escuro ao verde-musgo. O sol costuma remover as cores naturais dos tecidos

[@dorothealeblancart]

I loved seeing you dye your beautifully woven cloth! I wish I knew how you made the dark colour, that would have been interesting to see too. ❤

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you

[@haydenrobbie7368]

love learning about how to dye things...

[@billybobholcomb8768]

Well done. I look forward to the projects you will make with that cloth. Maybe clothes for your family. And you can help your wife with her projects to build a home for the kids to play and learn skills. It is my fantasy life to do this and teach my skills to my grandchilred as I taught my son.

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you so much

[@user-gx1rk8yw6l]

BUILDING a stairway is not really easy to understand. Not shown here, but in Huong's video: pouring the cement around the base of the bottom posts certainly helps to reduce wiggling. So what you 2 have built DESERVES being called STURDY! 🙂 Giải pháp tăng cường khả năng chống đỡ của sàn cũng không được hiển thị ở đây. Tôi sẽ gửi đến email doanh nghiệp của bạn mô tả về một phương pháp chắc chắn hơn để tăng cường khả năng hỗ trợ của sàn. Có lẽ bạn đã biết ý tôi rồi. Mô tả quá dài để đăng ở đây và sẽ chứa sơ đồ..

[@ladyofthemasque]

Are those roots and leaves okay to be around food? I'm wondering because that's the mortar you use for grinding rice and corn. Also, you did not show how you made the black dye color. Will you be showing that?

[@ass-master-deluxe]

Tighten the chain mayn. keep yaself safe

[@nancylucia5147]

I believe you can speed up the dyeing process by heating up the dye and soaking material in hot mixture for a longer time. Good luck and good work!

[@pamstephens2403]

Great job Doung, I learn from you my friend. I do know that beets are used as a dye also. And certain tree barks are used! Thank my friend for another learning experience. ❤Much love from.🇺🇲

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

THank you so much

[@ithulah]

Dyeing with natural materials isn't easy unless you have a lot of practice. You would have got better results with less hands on labour in a larger container with more water. It allows faster absorption, and a more consistent product without patchiness. I've done a little dyeing with plant materials and it's always a bit of a gamble. Dye that most people use now is always synthetic, often a modern version of an older natural dye. I always enjoy your videos, you put in so much work. 👍

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you, your shares are very useful to me

[@user-xx6uj5be5l]

Unfortunately, the natural pigment quickly fades in the sun. You need to dry the fabric in the shade. You need to add lime juice, acid to the pigment, it stabilizes the pigment, but it will fade quickly in the sun.

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you, it's nice to hear your comments, I will try to improve the video to make it better

[@loislara6991]

I have loved watching the whole process of this project and can't wait to see how it turns out at the end 😊

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you

[@zennowak9827]

Hi, how far is Your farm from Your wife,s farm?

[@ClassicallyMish]

It was nice to see Hoang’s cabin finished and the family day you all spent together with your children.

[@pakdhengawur6789]

thats amazing❤

[@CyberRana]

Its winter 🥶 can you please make a sweater with this cloths for me 😊

[@zoremaralte9217]

Now a day, primitive skill have Chain Saw

[@tile-maker4962]

You should make a dye tub where the fabric can bath in different color sections of the dye and a dry over-hang rack.

[@aslmoon4569]

مذهل الالوان رائعه جدا 😍😍😍

[@schlaznger8049]

I really miss the old school of fashioning everything.

[@dasauge9387]

The chain on your chainsaw is too loose, you have to tighten it otherwise the sawing is too dangerous, but great video

[@ruthpereira4804]

Duong observe esse detalhe 👆🏿

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you for comment

[@user-xo2lx1lu4s]

А черный как получился?

[@ruanfusheng]

Ngôi nhà gỗ này được làm tốt nhất bằng cacbon hóa, không dễ bị phân hủy.

[@alejiga1]

Xin chào từ Brazil, tôi đã học cách nhuộm quần áo bằng cách trộn nước sôi và nước lạnh. Và để sửa lớp sơn tôi đã dùng giấm rượu và muối.

[@YanDnepr]

wife's house is beautiful! I didn't expect this :)

[@veronicafaustino3774]

Realmente ficou muito bonita a casa da tua esposa ela é muito caprichosa e fez com muito carinho parabéns para vocês

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

THank you

[@Rockys-Mum]

I was waiting for the black one. I wonder if you use black Walnut, iris root, log-wood, oak galls?

[@maximovicentemartinez5135]

Un saludo desde costa de Guerrero México qué hermoso tu país felicidades por🎉🎉🎉🎉🙏🙏

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you

[@beckybrown6756]

Very pretty cloth.

[@SushiTheGolden]

Started with wood few years ago, then stone, then iron, then farm, then trading, then electricity, then finally, once they are done working on their dream house, he will start collecting obsidian and create a netherportal, 😂 I’m just kidding, I am happy for you and your family’s success, God Bless Duong and your family🙏🏻

Thank you, nice to receive your feedback, wish you good health

The red color reminds me of Buddhist garments.

[@PERPLEXAMBERK3]

Indian flag colour love from India

[@jamesculp3622]

Thank you for posting! I boil my pigmented water and steep my fabrics for about 10 minutes. Then I place them into a vinegar solution to set the color.

[@user-xk4fj6jt1i]

Круто! Не терпится увидеть какие вещи Вы будете шить.

[@ancientbuilds3764]

Duong, hit the nails on the sharp point when near the edge of the wood. This will stop the wood from splitting. You don't need to drill. It's a tip I just learned. My brother just laughed at me as he is a carpenter. Trade secrets.

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

😅😅

[@jorgeandrenunesferreira5014]

Você e sua esposa são muito criativos, o tecidos ficou lindos parabéns. Cada vídeo que eu assisto me faz bem. Continue assim,vc são uma família linda.

[@GuadalupeFranco-ls5lr]

La verdad me encanta ver a esta pareja...son muy creativos y se ve el amor que se tiene uno al otro...

Those look beautiful!

[@misterright7160]

10:21 In this case, try putting something heavy on the other side to remove the inertia of the shot, it will be easier to score.

[@vadimhellwalker]

NIce! And what about making vinegar from bad wine to fix the colours and making good wine to celebrate this?🥴😁

[@lindamesa5122]

I was wondering about your beautiful fabric! Nice work!💐🌺🌸

[@Moe7133]

You should do 4-5 of them and landscape it then rent them out for tourist who just want to get away from city life.

I saw the joy in your eyes

Thats amazing job 👏 👍👍🐓🐓🐤🐥🐟🐟🏡

[@user-gx1rk8yw6l]

Tearing the cloth shows how well you have woven it! Việc xé vải chứng tỏ bạn đã dệt nó tốt như thế nào! 🙂

[@madrepityu]

It shows that it's made by a machine. He's bought it on the market. He made a few feet to show, but that's not this quality.

[@user-gx1rk8yw6l]

@@madrepityu The loom that Duong made IS a machine. A primitive machine, but still a machine! The broken threads in the tear seem (to me) to be too coarse for store-bought material. I would like more details on why you think that some of the material was bought instead of self-made. Chiếc khung cửi mà Dương làm LÀ một cái máy. Một cỗ máy nguyên thủy, nhưng vẫn là một cỗ máy! Đối với tôi, những sợi chỉ đứt trong vết rách dường như quá thô đối với vật liệu mua ở cửa hàng. Tôi muốn biết thêm chi tiết về lý do tại sao bạn cho rằng một số nguyên liệu được mua thay vì tự làm.

[@OmarAMassa-cq7io]

Me deixa muito curioso que essa qualidade do tecido seja obtida num tear primitivo. Além de ter essa quantidade de tecido com aquela pequena quantidade de lá.

[@user-gx1rk8yw6l]

Embora a qualidade seja muito boa, certamente NÃO parece ser de qualidade tão alta quanto se poderia esperar de um material comprado em uma loja. A QUANTIDADE de material me parece bastante adequada ao tempo disponível para tecê-lo. Though the quality is quite good, it certainly seems of NOT as high a quality as one might expect from material bought in a store. The AMOUNT of material seems (to me) quite appropriate for the time available to weave it.

[@jamesbrown8718]

You have such a beautiful farm seeing it from a distance across your pond was just stunning. And the new house on your wife’s farm is really great work. She has really done a great job at the craftsmanship on it. Great to see you are doing so much better after your sickness earlier this year. Can’t wait till your family is back together again living under the same roof.

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you

[@blackbway]

I think that he could make a stronger dye by boiling the tuber with some ash from the fireside.

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you for comment

[@louisavevers9709]

My husband suggests you may want to tighten the chain on the chainsaw. It's too loose and will wear away the cogs too fast. 😊

[@thepredator6402]

beautiful

[@user-cg3ml4ct3t]

You have to add citric acid for color retention.

[@garymyers6638]

next time, heat up the dye and soak the fabrics in the hot dye for considerably longer. You will get a very dark red.

[@PrimitiveSkillsnet]

Thank you, it's nice to hear your comments
