Modern Tie Dye by Abi Patten is an eco-focused guide to tie-dye techniques, from classic patterns to more advanced designs. The book shows how to use both natural dyes made at home and fibre-reactive dyes, giving you flexible ways to work with fabric safely and sustainably.
A full chapter covers natural dyes, how to prepare them in your kitchen and how to use planet-friendly mordants that help colours last. The book also introduces environmentally conscious dye options for those who prefer ready-made solutions.
The 11 projects include designs such as bullseye, shibori and mandala patterns. Each project features step-by-step instructions, illustrated stages and an alternative colourway for ideas. All projects use thrifted or upcycled garments and accessories to show how older items can be transformed into bright, wearable pieces.
