Shibori + Indigo at Praxis

Shibori is an ancient technique that is used to create patterning on cloth. You will learn how to create patterns on fabric, which will then be dyed in an Indigo vat, creating the traditional magical blue coloring. Shibori is a Japanese word used to describe a variety of manual resist techniques such as binding, twisting, or clamping that create a variety of patterns. Techniques covered are Arashi Shibori, which is a wrapping technique using a cylinder or rope, and Itijime Shibori, clamping and binding. Learn the traditional methods of Shibori, then create your own patterns.
