3.0 out of 5 stars
Very, very specific target market,
This review is from: Ancient dyes for modern weavers (Hardcover)
Are you interested in dyeing something using authentically ancient-to-medieval techniques, or in knowing how one might undertake such an activity? No? Then this book isn't for you. Medievalists, SCA members, fashion designers, and novelists looking for a little added authenticity in their old-timey stories will probably find this fascinating and indeed useful - because this is a very practically-oriented book, helpfully divided into sections covering general pointers on dyeing, plus specific chapters for 'reds, purples, blues,' 'yellows, golds, oranges,' and 'browns, blacks' - you WILL be able to use this to dye clothing, assuming you can come by the raw material. Others, however, will most likely feel _Ancient Dyes for Modern Weavers_ to be not so much bad as pointless. |
