Just some samples of my first year dyeing with plants until I can get around to posting details of various methods. Do ask if you’re curious about any of the colours! 🙂
hi. Thanks for this post. I am a botanist, doing a project on wild edibles. I encounter items on plants dyes everywhere. I want to try Madder as it grows here in abundance. Thanks! Jane
Hi Jane, thanks for visiting! Just in case you’re not aware, with madder it’s only the roots that give good dye, not the green part of the plant. But it’s very easy to get good colour.
