About indigo and dip-dye

About indigo and dip-dyeing

Indigo is an incredibly special dye that can be derived from several plants, which vary in
different parts of the world. Deep wells are used as dye baths in India, and the dyeing process is repeated over and over. If the color runs out, more dye is added. Dip-dyeing involves dipping different parts of the fabric into the well for different amounts of time. The lightest section might be dipped for just ten minutes, while a darker section could be dipped for much longer than that

Ikat

Ikat

An intricate way to pattern a textile. Ikat is created by binding some sections of warp threads. When the fabric is dyed, the bound sections retain their original color. Our ikat has three colors: two sharper shades form the stripe, while a third color is the base.
