Create custom dyed pieces while exploring a variety of resist dyeing techniques using natural fabrics. Fold, twist, and knot the fabric to create beautiful patterns. Experiment with the Arashi method (wrapping cloth around a pole) to create striped patterns. Create geometric patterns with Itajime folding techniques or circular designs with various Kumo Shibori methods.
