I just stumbled upon your site
and the page about dying. i have done a lot of natural dying
myself and as a rule if you can eat it it wont give a very good
colour and the colour it does give will not last, especially
if the cloth is exposed to light. You suggest various berries
for example, the colour on the cloth that these give will go
grey very quickly. Onion skins however give a very good orange,
the colour does fade over time though. I would also suggest woad
for blue, it is still available if maybe a bit more expensive
and gives a great colour, a bit smelly to work with perhaps!
Great site, it would be great
if we dyed out own fabric more often in this world. |
