This is my first attempt at making mycelium leather at home. I was able to get the aerial mycelium to grow using a recipe from a Cambridge researcher posted online. I simply used a simple mushroom growth chamber with the growing medium covered by some blue jeans (I was hoping to use them as reinforcement) and some pink oyster mushroom spawn. I used a microwave to sterilize the growth medium and I used a pressure cooker for the blue jeans.

I followed this recipe and just multiplied by 5. I will also be following the plasticizing and tanning steps.
