This is nearing the end of the plants for natural dyeing series on here. This is for BROWN and also with varying depth of colours you can make it dark or lighter, again adding other plants that give other colours.
I am finding it all very fascinating and can not wait to make up different batches and do lots of dyeing and log my results.
This is the list for browns and I hope you give it a go!
