FAQ About The Role of Shibori in Modern Textile Design
How does the Shibori dyeing process work?
The Shibori dyeing process involves several key steps. First, fabric is prepared and manipulated using specific folding, twisting, or binding techniques. Then the prepared fabric is submerged in dye, traditionally indigo. After dyeing, the fabric is rinsed to set the colors. Once dried, bindings are removed to reveal the intricate patterns created. Each step is crucial for achieving the distinctive Shibori look.
