July 30, 2019 @ 1:30 pm - August 10, 2019 @ 5:30 pm
$85
In this workshop local natural dyer Amanda de Beaufort will explore the ancient blue dye indigo. You will learn how to create your own indigo Vat from scratch and the basics of working with a living Vat. Amanda will demonstrate basic shibori techniques including folding, twisting and bunching cloth to create bold patterns.
Each participant will leave with a tea towel of their own creation. Participants are also encouraged to bring their own small sized natural fiber (100% cotton, linen, bamboo) garment or item to dye. T-shirt, tank top, bandana, socks, etc. are perfect.
