The Wild Dyer: A Guide to Natural Dyes & the Art of Patchwork & Stitch by Abigail Booth
This book introduces you to the art of natural dyeing, teaching you the basics of foraging for and growing your own dye plants, as well as simple stitch techniques. You'll learn how to create effective dyes using a variety of materials, from onion and avocado skins to chamomile and comfrey.
