Don't forget to sign up for Olivia's June 28 | 1:00–5:00 PM afternoon of natural dyeing using foraged black walnuts and onion skins! Participants will learn how to prepare a dye bath, mordant fiber, and dye yarn using plant-based materials.
Together, we will create rich gold, rust, and brown tones from the natural pigments found in black walnuts and onion skins. We will prepare two separate dye baths and explore color variation through submersion dyeing techniques.
Yarn will be provided, but participants are welcome to bring their own natural-fiber yarn to experiment with.
Olivia Hochstadt is a knitwear designer making garments from yarn that she spins and naturally dyes with plants she forages locally. In 2021, she apprenticed master fiber artists in Shetland, the Faroe Islands, and Chile as the first-ever Colby Global Fellowship. https://www.instagram.com/k.o.knits/

We are so excited to share this opportunity with you all! This pilot residency will take place in the Cloth Collaborative studio in Hyde Park, MA, check out the link in our bio!
More info✨⬇️
The inaugural Cloth Collaborative residency offers 24/7 access to a shared, working textile studio. Artists will have full use of floor and table looms, a knitting machine, sewing machines, sergers, and equipment for dyeing and surface design. The studio also has a growing research library and a dynamic collection of shared materials. The studio is active with classes, workshops, and open studio, creating an inclusive community environment. Attached kitchen and gathering spaces reinforce the sense of shared daily life and informal connection that is central to the Cloth Collaborative.
We are seeking artists with an active, contemporary practice who are interested in working within a shared studio and living environment, and whose work resonates with the mission of the Cloth Collaborative. While a strong connection to textile practices is important, textiles do not need to define an artist’s entire practice; rather, they should be meaningfully present within the work. We are committed to fostering a welcoming and respectful environment, and we encourage applications from artists of diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives—especially those who have historically been underrepresented in the arts.

Duration: October 17 – November 1, 2026 (2 weeks)

Participants will have access to frame looms, backstrap looms, a shared table loom, knitting machines, sewing machines and sergers, hot and cold water dye equipment, wet and dry felting equipment, hand equipment for knitting, crocheting, and embroidery along with some supplies. The studio will be open for studio time from 6-9pm on the Tuesdays we are not meeting. We are limited to a cohort of six participants.
