For a Stone Age technology, natural dyeing is evergreen. The pursuit of color is so important that it has been a skilled profession for millennia, from printing and batik in northern India to iron/tannin processes known as mud dye in Africa and Asia to the carefully documented recipes used in early industrial London. This volume explores the rich cultural traditions of natural colors from around the world and introduces new ways to explore natural dyeing for yourself.
