4. TIE AND DYE
Tie and dye is a resist dyeing technique from ancient time periods. The process of tie and dye typically consist of
folding, twisting, pleating or crumpling fabric/garment and binding with string or rubber bands and than deep into
dyes. Tie and dye is used to create a wide variety of designs on fabric, from various patterns such as spiral, stripes,
diamond, marble effect to beautiful work of art.
Shibori is a Japanese art of tie and dye it includes a number of labor intensive resist techniques including stitching
elaborate patterns and tightly gathering the stitching before dyeing, forming intricate patterns. Another Shibori
method is to wrap the fabric around the core of rope ,wood or other material and bind it tightly with string or
thread. The areas of the fabric that are against the core or under the binding would remain undyed.
In India Bandhna is very famous art which is also known as Bandhej and Bandhani. It’s a shape resist dyeing
technique to create such beautiful pre defined patterns. Another method of bandhna is Leheriya which gives the
beautiful stripes pattern on fabric. These are highly used to produce the apparel textile, accessories such as scarfs ,
hand bags, home furnishing products etc.
A different and most expensive method of tie and dye in India is Ikkat. In this process of tie and dyeing the warp or
weft dye before the cloth is woven. In south or east India it is called as Ikkat, and in western sides it is known as
Patola, which is a type of double Ikkat method.
14. SHIBORI
Shibori is a Japanese shape resist method of tie and dye. Shibori
is the Japanese word for a variety of ways of embellishing
textiles by shaping cloth and securing it before dyeing. The word
comes from the verb root shiboru, "to wring, squeeze, press."
Although shibori is used to designate a particular group of resist-
dyed textiles, the verb root of the word emphasizes the action
performed on cloth, the process of manipulating fabric. Rather
than treating cloth as a two-dimensional surface, with shibori it
is given a three-dimensional form by folding, crumpling,
stitching, plaiting, or plucking and twisting. Cloth shaped by
these methods is secured in a number of ways, such as binding
and knotting. It is the pliancy of a textile and its potential for
creating a multitude of shape-resisted designs that the Japanese
concept of shibori recognizes and explores. The shibori family of
techniques includes numerous resist processes practiced
throughout the world.
