Monoprint Resist with Plant Dyes (Itajime Resist Technique)
This event is no longer on sale.
Join instructor Angelina DeAntonis as we explore the dye resist technique “itajime”, using this folding and binding method to create your own scarf. Participants will gather a plant leaf, frond or some other plant material and create a monoprint resist using plant dyed wood blocks. The dyed blocks will transfer through the layers of silk, making a repeated pattern with a subtle and surprising botanical pattern, as we over-dye with natural dyes in our workshop.
Please wear clothing that can get stained, and bring rubber gloves, a notebook, and an apron.
