SHIBORI DYEING *SOLD OUT*

  • The Shop 1139 College St Toronto, ON, M6H 1B5 Canada (map)

Join us and learn the art of Shibori dyeing.  This Japanese style of resistance fabric dyeing includes binding, stitching, folding, twisting and compressing the fabric before submerging it in indigo ink, resulting in beautiful, complex, one of a kind designs.  During this three hour workshop, you will be shown the different techniques involved in fabric preparation, before having the chance to dye your own fabric. 

PLEASE BRING:  Fabric you wish to dye.  Only natural fibers will accept dye, so be sure to stay away from synthetics. You can choose to dye simple fabric yardage which you can then make into anything at all, or you can dye ready-made fabric.  For the most traditional shibori look, go with solid white fabric. Cotton responds really well to indigo dye.  PLEASE BRING PRE-WASHED FABRIC NO LARGER THAN 4x8 ft.

All other materials included.
