To find this sort of flax, check <a href="https://www.landcareresearch.co.nz/resources/collections/harakeke"> Landcare's website</a> which tells you what colours different flaxes dry to. Some people use paint but this is not an option I use.

I was wondering if you can tell me what is used to dye flax a white colour? I’ve not come across any dye for white and was hoping you might have some suggestions.
