The Wild Dyer

In The Wild Dyer, Abigail Booth guides you through the basics of natural dyeing and simple stitching techniques to create 15 beautiful projects. You will learn how to find, grow, and gather dyes – from onion skins and avocado pits to chamomile, self-heal, nettles, and acorns – and how to prepare fabrics with washing, mordanting, and dye baths.

Projects include a drawstring bag, aprons, and cushions. The result is modern, sustainable textiles with a personal touch.

Abigail Booth, together with Max Bainbridge (author of The Urban Woodsman), runs the award-winning Forest-and-Found in East London. They create products that celebrate craftsmanship and natural materials, and share their passion for creation with others.
