The traditional process of dying fabrics by hand is artistically satisfying, and as this illustrated primer shows, it proves to be a surprisingly straightforward process. Providing a modern introduction to indigo and fiber-reactive dye, Anna Joyce explores techniques like shibori and using organic compounds, and explaining how to create stylish, richly colored and patterned pieces. Classic techniques and natural materials make these projects beautiful and accessible, even for the beginner, and the 25 projects include an elegant robe, a duvet cover set, drum lampshades, and even a hammock.
