In the Author's Words.....
"Though it took a bit of time to work out the process, dyeing self-patterning yarns at home was easier, and more fun, that I ever imagined it could be. This book is the result of those experiments. I hope you enjoy the journey as much as I did."pg 7

Yarns to Dye For offers an easy, inexpensive, and fun way to dye your own self-patterning yarns - no other book details this intriguing process. Kathleen Taylor guides you through each step: selecting yarns and equipment, wrapping and tying skeins and balls for dyeing, painting and dyeing yarns, and knitting quick and simple garments that show off your marvelous yarns.
