"Tie-dye"It is a method of dyeing kimono that has been passed down in Japan for about 700 years.
By tying the fabric with thread and applying pressure, the fabric is dyed in a state where it is under pressure.
This is a traditional tie-dyeing technique called "makiage shibori," which creates patterns without the dye soaking through.
The way the pleats are gathered and the way the string is wrapped around the fabric will affect how the white background appears,
The skill comes into play in deciding which parts to dye.
You can choose from a wide range of 20 colors.
You will create a unique, one-of-a-kind piece of art just for you.
You can take your creations home with you.
