An Introduction to Natural Dyeing Book

A rare early guide from the back-to-the-land era, infused with raw curiosity and handspun charm. This slim yet potent booklet is part of the legendary Thresh Publications series, a 1970s press that gave voice to DIY makers, spinners, dyers, weavers, and dreamers before the internet ever existed. Illustrated simply and printed with a homespun aesthetic, it walks readers through natural dyeing with onion skins, plant-based mordants, and fibre staining from kitchen to hedgerow. This original 1972 edition is nearly impossible to find intact. For collectors, fibre historians, and those who believe dyeing should feel like stirring a cauldron in a sun-warmed kitchen.
