Description

How many times have you heard the word ‘Woad’? Probably not very often at all and yet, woad has been woven throughout human history from ancient times to the present day, leaving a distinct impression on society and influencing our culture. Although known traditionally for its blue colour, woad also provides a vibrant palette of colours that can be used for dyeing fabrics, printing and even painting!

This book provides step-by-step, easy to follow instructions for starters and experts alike to use woad in a variety of creative ways, including:

  • vat dyeing and immersion dye baths;
  • printing and resist methods to create patterns on fabric and
  • experimentation looking at how woad can be used on a range of other materials including paper, ceramic and even an old snake skin!
