could it be possible to have colored linen for example by mashing up a beet and putting it in a tanning tub with the linen cloth to make purple fabric for shirts and things? use nettle to make a green dye, blueberries to make a blue dye, maybe some sort of bark for an orange dye, lingonberries for a pink dye?
just a thought, i think it would be pretty cool and distinctive like the woods and boughs in the game to be able to use items for dyes!

Re: Dyes for fabrics?
It has certainly been suggested several times, and, it would certainly be a nice thing. It is, however, also far from trivial.

Maybe a reason for linen clothes to exist, as in legacy they only served to keep nettleless noobs clothed and now they're, well, COMPLETELY USELESS
