Hello everyone,
Just in case anyone is interested, I have found two written recipes for =
blue dyeing, both on wool and neither fron Regia's period (one before =
and one after,) but it is the best I can manage at the moment.
They are contained in 'The Art of Dyeing in the History of Mankind' by =
Franco Brunello. English translation made available by Phoenix Dye =
Works, Cleveland, Ohio. 1973.
 Page 98 has the recipe from the 'Papyrus Holmiensis'  3rd century AD. =
and p158 has a recipe from 'Trattato del l'Arte della Lana'  15th =
century AD.
If anyone is still interested in the actual dyeing process, let me know =
and I will put them on here.
 Please note, this is not the modern process. If anyone wants that, see =
above.
Hazel
