Book Reviews of A Dyer's Garden: From Plant to Pot Growing Dyes for Natural Fibers

Book Review: Great for anyone new to dyeing!
Summary: 5 Stars

This was my first introduction to the world of dyeing with plants. The photography is terrific and gives you a good idea of what you'll get from each plant. Mordants are discussed, and the plants that are included are covered thoroughly for both cultivation and dye recipes. My only regret? That I can't find the seeds for the Japanese Indigo! I recommended this book to several people when we attended our local fiber festival.
