Earthues Natural Dyes<br />

Your yarns and fibers will glow with rich, exuberant and complex<br />

natural colors. Michele Wiplinger, the genius behind Earthues, traveled<br />

the world gathering dye formulas from indigenous dyers to create a line of<br />

dyes which don’t use scary heavy metals like chrome and tin. All Earthues©<br />

dye extracts are natural, non-toxic and can be used and disposed of without<br />

worry or risk to you or your environment or your children. Select from<br />

three different marvelous natural dye collections from which virtually<br />

every color you can think of can be created, even lively and bright colors<br />

previously thought to be possible only with chemically compounded dyes.<br />

Wonderful for both animal and plant fibers although every fiber takes<br />

the color slightly differently. Choose from three comprehensive collections,<br />

or individual extracts are available either to restock or choose individually~<br />

to try, including roots and plants (madder, tumeric, henna), wood (cutch, fustic), flowers (safflower,<br />

wild cherry, avocado). 112 pgs. (paper,color). #57120400 • $14.95<br />

need to know about dyeing and painting with natural dye extracts.<br />
