Tie Dye-The How to Book
This book has excellent illustrations on how to tie-dye but I was disappointed that there were no pictures illustrating the final product. For someone with limited knowledge of tie-dying, I had to guess what the project would look like after it was completed. Otherwise, it is a very helpful guide.

excellent for beginners
This book was an excellent how-to book for beginners. I found the diagrams of how to tie the fabric very helpful. Great for school teachers, or camp because it also contains alot of history and origens of tie dye. This book gives specific directions and ingredients essential to successfull tie-dye.

Good, but not good enough
Virginia has a good starter book for tie-dye, but like the majority of tie-dye content - only skims the surface. I prefer Jacquard's "Tie Dye To Die For & Batik You Can't Resist" book at $5.95 vs. this how-to book. To be fair, I would purchase it to see her lovely tie-dye work, but as a "how-to" I might look elsewhere.
