4.0 out of 5 stars The Dyer's Companion- Bemiss, July 10, 2009
By 
This review is from: The Dyer's Companion (Paperback)
A really neat book of old-timey (1806) recipes for dying cloth, yarn, leather, etc. All terms and procedures are explained in the back of the book, but the "receipts" are just as they were way back when.Good detail. Herbs and chemicals to get the colors you want. Home remedies too! A fascination! Marlene
