In this hands-on class you will learn the basics of shibori-inspired folding and binding techniques to create beautiful patterns on fabric with indigo dye. We’ll discuss setting up the vat and spend time preparing our materials for dyeing. The use of indigo dye, or aizome, has a long and cherished history in Japan.
