Dye on Hands? Use a Glove

To prevent dye from accumulating on your hands and spoiling the color,  while working on Ukrainian pysanky(batik method) or the monochrome shell used for Kroszonki, the Polish scratch method of Pisanki:

• I use a glove on the hand that holds the shell.  
  
• I find it a must to wear a glove, as you can see below, when working with a goose egg shell or anything larger than a chicken shell.  

WORKING ON SCRATCH METHOD-DYE GETS ON YOUR HAND

WORKING WITH A KISTKA ON A GOOSE SHELL, I USE A WHITE COTTON GLOVE, SO AS NOT TO DAMAGE THE WAXING

WEAR A TIGHT FITTING WHITE COTTON GLOVE TO PROTECT YOUR HAND FROM DYE-WHILE IT LOOKS LIKE A LARGE DYE LOSS-THE GLOVE ACTUALLY PROTECTS DYE LOSS
