Clothing, How Did They Make It? Part IVa: Dyed in the Wool
Great to see stuff like this on HN.<p>Curious: there is an unbelievably huge wealth of this type of "content" that lives almost exclusively in history books, or at least seems profoundly difficult to find on the internet.<p>Then there's the insane illusion that virtually all knowledge is accessible within the first Google search result page, so I'm always pleased whenever articles like this one find their way to the surface...<p>Incidentally, if anyone is interested in the <i>general</i> topic of making cloths / tailoring, I just recorded a podcast episode on this - the show is about deep, obsessive hobbies and the first episode is about a neuroscientist who transforms into a tailor at night: <a href="https://www.whentheworkisdone.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.whentheworkisdone.com/</a>
