Now Tie dyeing is become very popular. It is same as that of batik printing but here the dye is resisted by knots that are tied in the cloth before it is immersed in dye bath. The outside of the knotted portion is dyed, but inside is not penetrated if the knot is firmly tied. This gives a characteristic blurred or mottled effect.

 Use good quality dye
 Use soft 100% cotton or linen fabric
 Prewash fabric
 Let dye soak for 24 hours in plastic before unwrapping
 Use a mordant and fixative

5. Mordants & Fixatives
 Mordant: a substance, typically an inorganic oxide,
that combines with a dye or stain and thereby fixes it in
a material. Can be added to dye, but is better as a
presoak for the fabric.
 Dye Fix: used after dyeing to help link the dye to the
fabric

6. Classroom Basics

 Use gloves and smocks
 Wrap freshly dyed fabric
 Label fabrics clearly, so you remember which is yours
 Store freshly dyed fabric on the plastic provided

7. DO NOT DRIP ON THE FLOOR

8. Shibori
 Shibori is the Japanese term
(from the word ‘to squeeze or wring’)
 It is a bit like tie dye,
but more precise and geometric.
 It is usually done with a single indigo(blue) dyebath

9.  It uses a variety of resist techniques which prevent the dye from
reaching certain parts of the fabric. The original fabric colour
remains in resist areas.
 Tyeing
 Pleating
 Clamping
 Sewing
 These fabrics have been
sewn and tied.

10. 3 things to remember:
Thing 1
 The resist must be as tight as
you can make it.
It needs to be tight enough to prevent
water and dye from traveling along the cloth

11. Thing 2
 The dye does not
penetrate to the middle of
the fabric if you are working
with many layers of fabric

12. Thing 3
 Fabric should be wet or soaked
in plain water after it is tied and
before it is dyed.

24. TIE DYE
 Tie-dye is a modern term coined in the mid-1960s in
the United States for a set of ancient resist-dyeing
techniques, and for the products of these processes.

25.  In the 1960s, tie-dye was brought to America through
the hippie movement, a youth movement that advocated
the sexual revolution, psychedelic rock and protested
the Vietnam War. Hippies wanted a way to escape from
the strict social norm of the 50s, and tie-dye was just
one way of expressing their free-spirited nature.

26.  Before tie-dye became popular, the Rit Dye company
was struggling. A company representative got two
retired artists to create tie-dye pieces to show to
designers and fashion editors and it was suddenly a hit.

27.  After clothing designer Halston started using tie-dye in
his designs, stars such as Janis Joplin were wearing it.
Soon enough, tie-dye became a bandwagon the entire
youth generation jumped on.

28. Stripes
 scrunch fabric vertically.
 Wrap rubber bands around the laces you want stripes.

29. Bull's Eye
 Place fabric on a flat surface.
 Pinch and lift the center of your bull’s eye.

number of rubber bands you use depends on how many
sections you want in your bull's eye.
