Plant Dyes
Dive into the colourful world of plant-based dyeing!
Are you interested in dyeing fabric with plant-based dyes but don't know where to start? Whether you are a beginner or looking to improve your skills and learn more about plant dyeing and printing techniques, Plant Dyes offers you a complete approach: from picking plants to dyeing fabrics, from mordanting to creating patterns.
Besides creating the dyes, you'll learn shibori techniques, how to make flower and leaf prints, tips for dyeing yarn, and more. You'll also find step-by-step instructions for 12 unique projects including giving new life to a stained shirt, dyeing cloth napkins, botanical wall hangings, dyed macrame plant hangers, and more.
Camille Binet-Dezert takes an eco-responsible approach, repurposing old fabrics, reusing vegetable peels, and utilising nature's gifts to their fullest. Colour charts show more than 20 common plants that will give you a beautiful range of dyes.
