Shibori: Japanese Art of Indigo Fabric Dyeing

Learn the centuries-old Shibori technique, a Japanese dyeing method in which patterns are created on fabric by folding and binding cloth. You will learn how to prepare your fabric and mix fiber-reactive cold water dye. We'll be using real indigo dye to create patterns on silk scarves and cotton tea towels – each one your very own unique textile. This dye is very permanent, so please wear clothing you don’t mind getting messy. All materials included.
