forgotten shibori





I just realized I forgot to show you this piece. When I smushed it all down on the pole, it was too big for the bucket I was using to dye it, so I put it in anyway. I hoped that if I got the top bit wet enough, the dye would sort of travel up the fabric, as water likes to do. Well, it did! I was very pleased, as I'm sure you can imagine. So, enjoy the subtlety that is displayed up toward the top. And well, everywhere else, too.

Thanks Suann :) This fabric is so amazing. The texture, as you said, is great.

That is gorgeous. Sigh.

Thank you Carlene. I was going to polewrap your scarf this week, except my hands suddenly got quite awful... I really shouldn't be typing, ha! I will surely be able to do it this weekend so I can dye when I'm in Detroit next week. I hope all is well with you :)
