Dyeing with natural dyes and preferring threads dyed with natural dyes in knitting and other crafts is becoming more and more popular, and for good reason: industrial dyeing processes use a lot of water and other natural resources, and we don't know what synthetic dyes contain. More and more people want to prefer yarns produced nearby, domestic soft wool, and other ethically and sustainably produced materials, and to know their origin as precisely as possible.
The book introduces you to the secrets of natural color dyeing: between the covers you will find twelve clear dyeing instructions, which you can implement even in your home kitchen using a microwave oven, because all the instructions are completely non-toxic. Those who live outside the urban areas can organize their own coloring days for the whole group of friends. With these dyeing instructions, you can dye yourself a full circle of colors, or create your very own, multi-colored striped and patterned yarns!
In the book you will find 21 new, incredibly beautiful knitting patterns. The most followed Nordic professional designers and dyers on insta, face and blogs have been invited, many of whom have previously published their own knitting books or popular instructions on Ravelry and the largest craft magazines, such as Mia Sunell/SullaVikat, Katrine Wohllebe/GoodLifeKnitting, Emma Kylmälä/Towndyer, Annette Petavy, and Niina Laitinen. In the book, you will also find other useful tips and tricks for modifying knitting patterns and colors to suit your own needs, as well as for designing your very own knitting patterns, you will familiarize yourself with the color wheel and you can read the stories of designers.
Welcome to the wonderful magic world of sweaters dyed with natural colors!
