Traditional shibori dye techniques originate in Japan,
with the name encompassing a variety of resist-dye techniques for textiles.
Typically, a light or white natural fiber cloth (like silk, hemp or cotton) is folded, bunched, or twisted, then tied up, and finally dip-died in indigo dye using various methods to achieve unique results.
 
This Shibori Indigo dye kit contains indigo dye, thiox, soda ash, wooden pop sticks, rubber bands, gloves and an instructional sheet that includes shibori dye techniques and post-dye care instructions.
