WORKSHOP: Indigo & Shibori with Amy Johnson
In this hands-on indigo dyeing workshop, explore the possibilities of indigo with a focus on submersive dyeing and Shibori dyeing techniques. Indigo is a natural dye extracted from some plants, and Shibori is a Japanese resist-dyeing technique that involves twisting cloth and binding it to create a vast array of patterns in the fabric. Instructor Amy Johnson will guide you through the best way to prepare fabrics for dyeing, from fabric selection, to washing, scouring and post-dyeing treatment that will give your dyed goods the longest life possible. Then, mix a fructose indigo vat, stitch, wrap your designs, and dip the fabric into the vat of your desired shade of indigo.
