- Transforming
Fabrics; by Carolyn Dahl - $45.95
The fourth
comprehensive book introduced this year. Besides the usual
dyeing, marbling, screening segments, this book teaches about
Shibori (Japanese tie-dye), Gyotaku (fish printing), background
washes, devore (burn-out with Fibre-Etch), stencil stitching,
braiding and compression techniques. One very cool technique
is the rain patterning. This technique harnesses the rain.
I think this book really stands out, if you are looking more
for patterning with dyes instead of paints
