    If I am not mistaken, lemons are used to make both yellow dye(what?) and bleach dye(whatwhat?).

    Sundren lemons must be really sour. o.o;

    Whose graven runes in tomes of dread have taught/ What things beyond the star gulfs lurk and leer.
    Dark Lord of Averoigne- whose windows stare/ On pits of dream no other gaze could bare!"

      That's right, yellow and bleach. Bleach actually makes a little more sense than yellow dye. A quick wikipedia search reveals that lemons can be used to bleach hair. You learn something new every day.

        And now I know.

        And knowing is half the battle.

          I used this:
          http://www.pioneerthinking.com/naturaldyes.html
          As well as a couple of other sites..

          All of it was researched, even that the best red dye comes from bugs

          Although to avoid too much complication, I didn't take into account what dyes are best used on what sorts of materials. The strongest and most vibrant dyes often require a somewhat complex chemical process, and frequently include substances like alum, indigo, silver, sulphate and various sorts of wood (extracts).

              One stupid question concerning fruits: How can I make dye with them? I got some raspberries (or whatever they are called... the red ones!), but when I activate them, they just disappear!

                You need an alchemy recipe. Using them = eating them raw.
