Learn the wonders and magic of working with indigo dye in our Shibori Workshop.
Karen Davis of Shibori textiles will show you how to use the basics of shibori and tie dye to unlock your inner creative powers. The focus of this class is learning the techniques to achieve the different styles and effects of this beautiful traditional art form.
You will make a variety of fabrics that can be used to make cushions and home decor and a silk scarf as your final project.
This workshop also includes simple Katazome. Katazome is a centuries-old Japanese resist dyeing technique using resist paste which is applied before dye is applied. The resist paste is either stencilled painted or etched on to the cloth. Katazome is a fantastic way to add more detailed patterns to your fabric.
Please wear comfortable non precious clothes and be prepared to get your hands dirty.
Additional dye to take home to continue to practice your new skills, will be available to purchase on the day.
No previous experience is necessary.
This is an adult open age class but is suitable for age 12 plus and no previous experience is necessary however children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by a participating adult.
All materials and light refreshments will be provided.
