Dyer is the skill associated with the dyeing labor. Dyers use a dyer's shop to dye either thread or cloth. Finished cloth goods may not be dyed.

Dyeing adds the value of the dye, multiplied with the quality of the dye job to the thread or cloth. Depending on the dye used and the quality of the dyeing, this can give a nice value boost.
