Shibori, the elegant origins of psychedelic tie-dye, is a Japanese resist dyeing technique that is simple enough to do in your backyard but vast with possibility. You will learn traditional techniques to bind, fold, twist and compress fabric before using indigo dye to achieve the distinctive geometric, organic look of Shibori. Students will make at least six pieces to take home, and are welcome to bring their own natural fiber garments/fabric to dye as well!
