Indigo Dyeing

Advertisement

Learn the fascinating art of indigo dyeing! In this workshop, we'll explore indigo from many angles. What is indigo? It's an ancient dyeing technique that typically involves folding, twisting or bunching cloth and binding it, then dyeing it in indigo. Whatever is used to bind the fabric will resist the dye, resulting in areas of the cloth that take the distinctive blue dye. Students will be provided with small cotton pieces to dye. Students are encouraged to bring in washed cotton things.. Think shirts.. Towels.. Pillow cases.
