NATURAL DYEING
We will set up dye baths of various natural colours to choose from and demonstrate how each colour reacts to pH differently, how every fabric has unique properties to hold colour etc. Everybody dyes their shibori-tied clothes in the earlier session and plays around with combinations of colours. Participants are allowed to bring in as many fabrics, and garments of their own as they want and can dye all of them in this session. This is the most interesting part of the workshop as you get to see the fruits of all the labour.
