SHIBORI FABRIC DYEING – Japanese shibori fabric is a technique in which dye is controlled by various methods of resist that create stunning designs. It’s a little like tie dye in its more basic form, but is much more controlled and deliberate in terms of creating a desired repeating pattern or effect.

In this workshop, you’ll hand dye three cotton tea towels (included). Feel free to bring your own pre-washed cotton or linen shirts, scarves, or throw pillows to play with as well! We’ll demonstrate several folding, twisting, tying & clamping methods; discuss the general process of preparing the fabric to accept the dye, the mixing and dye application process, as well as tips for successful rinsing + washing. Washed and Dried projects available for pick-up at the studio the following week.
