Craft Book: Basic Batik and Dyeing
By LeJeune Whitney
1972 LeJeune Whitney
40 Pages

This is an introduction to Hi*Dye, a high quality, high intensity "fiber reactive" dye which bonds permanently with natural fibers for washfast, boilfast, lightfast, brilliant clear colors. It is a highly concentrated cool-water dye which does not require heating for full color intensity (except for a dazzling turquoise which requires simmering and will give beautiful results with only small amounts of dye. A basic group of a few colors can be combined to produce a fabulous color range.

Book instructions include basic dyebath methods, Batik methods, guide to selection of fabrics and fibers, preparing fabrics for dyeing, best containers to use and much more.
