Shibori Indigo Dyeing

  • Arts Collaborative Medford 162 Mystic Avenue Medford, MA, 02155 United States (map)

Taught by Christine WIllis

$50

Indigo is a natural plant that creates a stunning deep blue color. We learn about this magical dye and utilize shibori, a Japanese dyeing technique that involves folding, twisting or bunching cloth to create resist patterns. The fabric is bound and dyed in indigo vat. You will unfold your item and it will reveal your one of a kind design. You will be able to choose two items to dye (tote bag, tea towel, bandana or socks).

All materials are included in the price of the class, so all you need to do is come ready to create.

Knowledge required:

Beginner friendly! Ages 10 + with an adult

Make sure to come in clothes you don't mind getting paint on!
