Overview

Discover the art and science of dyeing with lichen, an ancient, naturally occurring source of pigment found in forests, mountains, and quiet places around the world. Lichen Dyeing is an instructional guide to using one of nature's most subtle and powerful dye sources. Learn how to identify dye-rich lichens, forage responsibly, and use ancient boiling and fermentation techniques to create rich, earthy tones on natural fibers such as wool, silk, and cotton. With practical projects, clear methodology, and a focus on sustainability, this book is for makers who want to transform these simple organisms into long-lasting, beautiful color on wool, silk, cotton, and other materials. Unlike plant dyes, which fade into the background of natural dyeing literature, lichen dyeing is a delicate, sophisticated, and locally rooted art form. This Lichen Dyeing book is more than just a how-to guide; it's an invitation to sit down, observe, and create with purpose. This book provides not only color but also connection to textile artists, natural dye enthusiasts, and makers looking to delve deeper.
