The truest thing I have read in 8 years of /cgl/.

I'm going to try indigo dyeing this silk brocade today, in the interest of historically-authentic sword boy trash. None of the blue acid dyes looked quite right. Synthrapol for scouring, caustic soda to raise the pH, henna to reduce the O2 out of the dyebath. Have to pick up some flavorless gelatin as a final additive, which will hopefully keep the silk from losing its shine in the alkali.
