For those of you who do your own dyeing, our library just got a book about natural dyes. In case you're interested, here's the info:
Author: Jenny Dean Title: Wild color : the complete guide to making and using natural dyes Date: 1999 ISBN: 0823057275 Publisher: Watson-Guptill Publications
It has lots of color pictures, some history and how-tos. Not knowing anything about dyeing, it looks pretty complete to me! :)
