Zitat

The Story of Colour in Textiles is an introduction to a broad, diverse and fascinating subject of how and why people dyed textiles. A fresh review of this topic, this book brings previous scholars' work to light again, alongside new discoveries and research. Embroidery A detailed and fascinating history of the dyeing of fabric and yarn, this is a great book for textiles students, history lovers and anybody interested in dyeing processes and history. Its subtitle is Imperial Purple to Denim Blue, which is a fabulously concise and intriguing description of the journey dyeing has taken over the centuries. The book looks at the symbolism of colour through the ages, the many natural dye sources and their origins and the impact of synthetic dyes on the textile industry. Inside Crochet The book covers an impressive range of material; The Arnolfini Marriage, the emergence of meanings in colour, The Plictho, selvedge colours and hierarchies of dyers are all clearly discussed... The Story of Colour in Textiles is well-researched and readable. It is engaging...has good colour reproduction, and satisfyingly extensive references at the end of each chapter. A great book for both the casual and the academic reader, it merits being kept for reference. I thoroughly recommend it. -- Lorna Lindfield, Avon Guild Journal for Weavers, Spinners & Dyers 20130901
