ISBN: 9780881923025.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll who work with fibre crafts, as well as botanists, whether amateur or professional, will welcome this clear account of a wide range of plants from which natural dyes can be obtained. John and Margaret Cannon, both professional botanists, have selected forty-eight plants from different parts of the world and describe the structure and cultivation of each, its history as a dye source and the best method for its use based on their own experiments.\nMost well-known dye plants are included, among them elderberry, henna, indigo, madder and saffron, and each plant is beautifully illustrated by Gretel Dalby-Quenet, a skilled botanical artist, in a full-page painting that also shows the colours the plant can yield. A general chapter on dyestuffs and mordants, a short section of notes for teachers, a checklist of scientific plant names and a glossary help to make this a particularly practical and valuable book both for experimental craft workers and teachers, and for beginners in dyeing, spinning and weaving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Timber Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45113297174581,"sku":"ByrdShop_0881923028","price":225.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780881923025_398c44b9-559f-46fd-b28a-cd7050e956a3.jpg?v=1781175483","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/dye-plants-and-dyeing-9780881923025","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
