A guide to growing and using plants to make dyes. The introduction discusses the traditional use of plants and other natural sources in dyemaking, as well as types of dyes and their uses. The section on dyeing techniques shows how to prepare and dye fibres, how to use other substances to alter the colours and how to ensure colour fastness. The section on dye plants examines over 60 dye plants that produce an exciting range of colours, and gives advice on growing, harvesting and storage of the dyestuffs obtained. Colour swatches reveal the main colours that can be obtained from each plant.
