WVCC : Indigo Dye Class with December Carson
Event Information
Description
In this hands-on workshop, we will focus on the basic process of hand dyeing using an indigo vat.
Learn the basics of shibori-inspired folding and binding techniques to create beautiful patterns on fabric with indigo dye.
We'll discuss setting up the vat and spend time preparing our materials for dyeing.
By the end of class, we will finish the dye process and you will be amazed at the stunning one-of-a-kind patterns.
Tea towels will be provided for dyeing. You may bring up to two small items of your own to dye, and they must be of natural fibers such as cotton or silk. No large items like sheets or fabric yardage.
Dyeing with indigo can be messy. Please dress accordingly in clothing and shoes that can get stained.
Light snacks will be provided, bring your own beer or wine.
