Thanks Jim,
I have the Navajo Hopi book on dying wool. Looks like the sage comes out sort of a yellow with a greenish tinge. The sage that's so heavy around here is a "Sand Sage" with little tiny leaves, not the broadleaf sage from farther north, or even up in the higher country around here.
And, Sand Sage isn't in the dye book....could be a wild experiment...
