As things get nearer to self reliance in most things here , i want to be able to dye fibres , wool , cotton , hemp , linen , all natural fibres , without resorting to buying dyes etc.
I did dye with natural plant material , onion skins and the like years ago , but the details have long since left my head .
So i want to dye fibre as non chemically as possible , organic dyeing ?
Does anyone do this , or know of a good book on the subject ?
I am not arty farty in any way shape or form , just basic colours like dark blue , green , black , red etc .
I am not interested in experimental stuff either , just tried and tested age old techniques .
None of the fibres will be man made at all , only home grown plant fibre and sheeps wool .
Thanks in advance for any pointers in the right direction peeps .
