Books on dyeing

I would like to try dyeing using natural ingredients Very Happy I was wanting to get a book or two but not sure which ones will be any good. All comments and recomendations welcome Very Happy

One on my shelf that I really like is the Colour Cauldron, which has a strong historical commentry as well as lots of recipes.

I suppose I should plug my own booklet for beginners too... Embarassed

a whopping great £1.75, covers woad, weld, madder and greenweed to get you started on natural dyes, plus basic info on how to spin, felt and weave with a historical perspective.
