[MR] Fabric Dying Question

[Marybeth Lavrakas]

Unless you're willing to brave dyeing fabric in indigo
(something that drives me NUTTY with frustration),
you're really going to need to use modern dyes. Dyeing
linen is a royal pain using period methods, requiring
extra mordantining (extra sessions in the mordants,
not just adding more mordant to the pot). I have no
idea what the results would be when you factor in the
pre-existing modern pink dye.
