Madder Root
The ancients loved madder and so will you! Although this is a substantive, colorfast dye when used alone, utilizing different mordants and modifiers can bring out madder’s playful side. Reds, pinks, oranges, browns, and even purples are all possible with this one dyestuff.
But madder isn’t just for dyeing fibers. It makes beautiful inks for drawing, painting, or wood staining. Madder root is also a favorite among soap makers, as a beautiful and reliable natural colorant.
