In this 3-hour interactive workshop, you will gain some knowledge and process of textile dyeing with natural materials. You will understand the difference between “cellulose” and “protein” fibres, and how they take on the dyes. There will be an introduction to Shibori, the Japanese art of manipulating fabric to create patterns through the dye process. You will be guided to dye a bandana using shibori or dip-dye technique, which you will take home with you. This meditative process will provide you an understanding why our (re)connection with Nature is imperative to our consumer choices, and in particular, clothing. An art of crafting alongside Nature rather than against it.
Dyeing with Indigo

Place: Southlands Grange – Market Square. 6333 Market Ave, Delta

In this 3-hour interactive workshop, you will gain some knowledge and process of textile dyeing with natural materials. There will be a short introduction to Shibori, the Japanese art of manipulating fabric to create patterns through the dye process. You will be guided to dye two cotton bandanas using Shibori technique which you will take home with you. Watch how your dyed piece turns from green to blue as it is taken out of the vat and introduced to oxygen. Re-dip as necessary and if time allows to achieve darker shades. This meditative process will provide you an understanding why our (re)connection with Nature is imperative to our consumer choices, and in particular, clothing. An art of crafting alongside Nature rather than against it.
