Shibori is a traditional Japanese dyeing technique that involves folding, twisting, or bunching fabric to create intricate patterns. This method often uses indigo dye, resulting in beautiful blue and white designs. The fabric is manipulated in various ways, such as binding or stitching, to resist the dye in specific areas, creating unique patterns. The origins of Shibori date back to ancient Japan, where it was used to decorate clothing and textiles. Today, it remains popular among artists and designers, who appreciate its handmade quality and the endless possibilities for creativity in fabric design.
