Just playing around with some pre-reduced indigo to dye some muslin fabric and wool yarn. If I’d followed instructions I would have use thin cotton fabric and soaked the fabric in water for a couple of hours before dyeing, for a more uniform result.
Edit: I should mention, Shibori is an age-old Japanese method of binding and stitching fabric to create beautiful, intricate patterns. As you can see, my method was neither beautiful nor uniform, as I just saw a reel on instagram and was like “yeah i can do that” and made many mistakes. If I can find any good sources for Shibori stitch patterns I’ll share them here, but most of them seem to be behind a pay wall
