If you are coming to Alexandra Palace and you are interested in natural dyeing make sure you visit The Aranya Project. Aranya Natural Dyes are undoubtedly, a gift of nature. But more than that, Aranya Natural Dye Project is a marvel of the human spirit. The project has the support of Tata Tea Limited, which is today, the largest integrated tea company in the world. Behind the success of Aranya, are physically challenged young adults, from the families of Tata Tea's own workers. These young people are educated and rehabilitated at a Vocational Training Centre managed by the women of Munnar. For further details on this project and what they will be doing at Alexandra Palace look at the features listed for The Knitting and Stitching Show or click here
