Product Details:
A Dyer's Garden

Author: Rita Buchanan

Now you can keep the beautiful colors of your summer garden with you all year long in the form of vibrant dyes for natural fibers. A Dyer's Garden walks you through a garden season from design to planting to harvesting for the dyepot. The hundreds of colors presented are but a sampling of the striking hues you can achieve by following the author's foolproof methods and encouragement for experimentation.

Rita Buchanan has been studying dye plants for twenty years and growing them for ten; she uses the dyes to color wool and other natural fibers which she spins into yarn for knitting and weaving. Along vriith dye plants, she also grows hundreds of fragrant herbs, perennial wildflowers, and ornamental shrubs.
