How it is made here

01
Walk the route
Three times, at three different hours, before it earns a page.
02
Time the light
Every stop gets an hour, not just a name.
03
Publish the notes
The route is published with its own photographs, never stock.
04
Fold the linen
Every fold becomes a white line that the dye cannot reach.
05
Dip eleven times
Dip, lift, breathe. The green oxidises into blue in the air.
06
Dry in shade
Never in sun. The colour keeps moving for a week.
