VAT PACKS Indigo

These indigo dye kits contain indigo grains and a reducing agent for the various vat sizes specified. Extra reducing agent is supplied to prolong the life of the vat. There are guidelines for dyeing fabrics which have been prepared for shibori - tie dye - resists but they do not contain any specific shibori instruction. The two pint pack is ideal for threads, silk and fine, light weight cotton fabric.

Indigo supplies. This unique service will supply you with the correct amount of indigo and reducing agent (plus extra reducing agent to sharpen the vat) for the vat size that you specify. This avoids wastage of odd amounts, and potential hazards. Please contact Jane to discuss your requirements. A consultancy service is available for schools who wish to set up and maintain an indigo shibori project.

SHIBORI STITCH RESIST AND BIND Shibori Instruction

These little packs are crammed with information on the stitched shibori (tie dye) techniques shown and include clear diagrams on drafting up the designs. The Three Leaves are an excellent start to a stitch resist venture as they offer three very different approaches to stitching. They are also available separately. The images below show indigo on 100% cotton fabric. However, the technique can be used on other fabrics with other dyes and colours, but of course the results will be different.

SHIBORI PATTERN STENCILS Shibori Instruction

Drafting out patterns takes time. By using stencils a pattern can be put into repeat and applied to the fabric quickly and with confidence. Jane has used stencils for shibori for many years. Combined with her experience on stitch resist techniques, pleasing and successful results on a variety of fabrics are assured with the selection below. Coupled with your imagination, an endless number of shibori or tie dye patterns and designs can be created, both traditional and innovative. The stencils come in two gauges to suit different weights of fabric and can achieve very different effects. N for narrow guage, and W for wide. This can be seen clearly in the Rokkakkei images. New images of larch and square will be posted in due course.

Stencils for stitch resist patterns are presented with clear diagrams and guidelines for use, with options and ideas for you to develop your own patterns. Their use is suitable for shibori resists and for achieving a three dimensional effect. If you are unsure which one to choose, please contact Jane. More designs will be posted in due course!

SHIBORI CHAIN PATTERN (new name - originally Moonbeam) Shibori Instruction

This stitch resist pattern was inspired by the Japanese Hinode pattern, meaning Sunrise. The stencils for creating the pattern are in three different sizes and ideally suited to overall and linear designs such as borders. The stitch resists shown have been worked on a medium weight cotton poplin. Results will depend on the fabric you choose. The fabric weights specified are guidelines.
