Shibori Dyeing Basics
Shibori is a Japanese resist dyeing technique that employs folding, binding, clamping, and pole wrapping to create areas of resist. This dye process can be used to create repeated patterns in fabric and when worked in multiple layers of dye, can produce intricate, mesmerizing fields of colour. Join Mariana in this workshop to discover the basics of Shibori with fibre reactive dyes!

We`re getting ready for some fun summer dyeing over at the Acid Dyeing Basics Study Group: Fundamentals at the School! Join in creating your own unapologetic and unique hand-dyed yarns and colourways using acid dyes and protein-based fibres with confidence and intention.
In this four-week study, we will work through content from Felicia Lo’s course: Dyeing Intentional Colour—one of the very first few courses Felicia designed for the School. She keeps no secrets about the magic of acid dyeing and has supported many new dyers on their colourful hand-dye journey. If you are also intrigued by the beauty of hand-dyed yarns and fibres, or simply want to learn to dye with a supportive group, we hope you`ll join us! We will start from the very basics—from setting up a dye space and mixing dye stock solutions, to finishing up our hand-dyed yarns and fibres.
