DYEING NATURALLY - Emma Kylmälä

Step into the world of natural dyeing: colour yarns for knitting projects, give a new life to home textiles or make inks from botanicals to enjoy a spectrum of seasonal shades. Gather the summer harvest and wrap yourself in plant-based hues!

Learn the basics of natural dyeing and discover an array of colourful ways to use different plants. This beautiful book will guide you safely through off the beaten track and let's you see the colours that hide in the surrounding nature. Get inspired to create lasting colours while respecting the environment and the natural world.

The author of this book, Emma Kylmälä, a Finnish natural dyer living in London, cultivates dye plants in her small city garden. She gathers dyeing materials from her urban surroundings and from the Finnish countryside during the summers.

We've also had the pleasure of having Emma as a Loopette in the past and adore her beautiful yarn which we stock under her Town Dyer name. We should be receiving a new batch of naturally dyed cotton soon!
