Whether harvesting dye-plants from your own garden or using dried materials from suppliers, Natural Dyes contains all the information, instructions and inspiration you need to get the very best results from your dyeing. Natural Dyes includes a wide range of projects, hints, tips and step-by-step sequences for dyeing both yarns for weaving and fabric and threads for embroidery. The projects are easy to follow with minimal fuss and equipment. The book also includes a section packed with the results of over 40 experiments with different sources of dye, detailing the varied effects and resuls you can obtain from each particular plant. All in all, this comprehensive guide will be an inspiration to anyone who wants to explore using natural dyes in imaginative ways.
