In this course, dyeing expert Siân Cornish takes you on a journey into the world of natural pigments and plant-based colour. You’ll discover where dyes come from - plants, trees, fungi - and how to extract their rich, complex hues to create a colour palette that’s uniquely yours. Learn how to set up your own home dye kitchen, work safely with natural materials, and experiment with a range of fabrics. With step-by-step guidance, you’ll master age-old techniques like bundle dyeing, resist printing, and shibori, and put your knowledge into practice with a series of dyeing projects that you can use in your home.
