The textile factories dyed the Union uniforms blue, and the few Southern clothing factories dyed the Confederate uniforms grey, but many Southern privates, especially toward the end of the war, served without uniforms at all. There are no very accurate figures on the number of dyers on both sides during the conflict. They would have worked for private companies under government contracts.
