Shibori Indigo Dyeing (Level 2)

Winchester artist, Kiyomi Yatsuhashi will lead this one-day advanced-beginner level workshop on the Japanese craft of shibori and indigo dyeing. This class builds upon skills gained in Shibori Indigo Dyeing (Level 1)*. In this workshop, Kiyomi will review basic processes and introduce two specific techniques: stitch shibori and pole wrapping. Students will dive right in, choosing to practice one or both techniques. You'll bring home indigo dyed unfinished cotton pieces that can be used for a quilt, wall hanging, table scarf, or napkin. Included in the workshop is one small finished scarf or bandana. All materials are included in this special one-day workshop. Limited to eight participants. NOTES: Materials Fee of $25 is included in the tuition fee and covers the cost of indigo dyes, tools, and fabric. Optional: natural fiber scarves (cotton, silk, wool), cotton bandanas, and kitchen towels & napkins will be available for purchase on the day of the workshop for anyone who would like to apply the shibori techniques to these items. Indigo dye will stain your clothing and shoes. We will provide aprons, but please dress for a mess and choose your shoes and clothing accordingly. https://www.instagram.com/kiyomi.yatsuhashi/ *This workshop is open to all students who attended Shibori Indigo Dyeing (Level 1) or who have equivalent experience.
