28 Jul 🎨Cabbage Indicator Tie Dyeing
At Discovery we love putting the Arts in STEAM!
Last week, Anita discovered how we can create our own pH indicator using the humble red cabbage. We had a fair amount of indicator left over, so we got creative and used the different colours produced in our experiment to create a tie dyed lab coat*!!
Follow on with Anita as she creates a cabbage indicator masterpiece, and explores the science that lends itself to dyeing cotton.

*only safe pH colours were used to dye the textile (lemon juice, vinegar and bicarb soda).
