Pure mycelium leather growth tutorial | The Purhyphae Project

For my final project at Fabricademy barcelona, FabLab BCN, I explored ways of upcycling textile waste and making natural textiles using fungi and more especially their mycelium. This video is a tutorial on how to make a composite mycelium-textile composite, using textile waste as a substrate for the mycelium growth.

This tutorial explains how to make the pure mycelium leather step by step in a DIY way, accessible to all, hoping people can make their own textiles more sustainably.
