    Alternate title: 
    Natural dyes with projects to create and stitch
    Description: 
    159 p. : col. ill. ; 25 cm.
    Notes: 
    Includes index.
    Contents: 
    Introduction -- Natural color -- Dye plants & where to find them -- A dyer's tools & workbench -- Understanding & preparing fabric -- Setting up a dye vat -- Haberdashery & textile care -- In the kitchen -- The dyer's garden -- Summer foraging -- Autumn foraging.
    Summary: 
    Fabrics colored with natural dyes have a beauty and subtlety all of their own. Onion and avocado skins, chamomile and birch bark, and nettles and acorns can produce lovely, ethereal colors and effects. The Wild Dyer demystifies this eco-conscious art, focusing on foraging and growing dying materials; repurposing kitchen trimmings; making and using long-lasting dyes; and creating stitched projects.
