Issue 29 (September 2001) of the Complex Weavers Medieval Textiles Study Group newsletter, devoted to natural dyeing. It gives recipes and notes for woad (pigment and leaf vats), weld (including its medieval sources and overdyeing to greens and oranges), madder (mordant and temperature experiments, including an iron mordant), buckthorn and black walnut. It also has short news items, upcoming events, a call for samples for a sample calendar, and a piece on finding grants. Three scanned dye sample cards at the end show woad, madder/walnut/buckthorn and weld results on various yarns.
