Review: Excellent book - So very informative
Review: Really comprehensive dyeing instructions - This is a really great dyeing book, which is used by the tutors at Macclesfield Silk Mill, who run one day natural dyeing courses. It has a page for each plant. My favourite feature is the 'Colour Swatch Guide', which shows what colour you will get with an alum mordant, what colour the dye on the fibres looks like and what colour you will get with an iron modifier, after dyeing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Inspiring beautifully illustrated and informative book
*by A***R on 6 January 2019*

This is a wonderful book. It is organised and illustrated so well. It gives clear guidance and instruction on the plants, how to extract the colours from them and the methods used to produce dyes from them, as well as how to make the dyes colour fast. I would highly recommend it, its pages are a joy to leaf through, so full of colour and information.
