The advantages of dyeing wool at low temperatures with metal‐complex and milling acid dyes are examined. Details of variations in conventional dyeing practice are discussed in detail and recommendations for applying selected dyes are given. The cost implications of dyeing at temperatures below the boil are reviewed, and some techniques for the low‐temperature dyeing of woo/nylon blends briefly mentioned.
