Book Overview

With this beginner-friendly guide, "crafting with dye doesn't have to be messy or impossible to conquer"--but it "might turn into an all-consuming passion" (Booklist, starred review).

This modern introduction to indigo and fiber-reactive dye offers everything you need know to create stylish, richly colored and patterned pieces. Natural materials and classic techniques like shibori make these projects beautiful and accessible, even for the beginner.

Anna Joyce is the perfect instructor to teach the skills needed to create more than twenty-five masterpieces for the home and wardrobe that readers will want to wear, live with, and most importantly, make by hand.
