Shibori Workshop

Begin your journey by learning about two traditional indigo-bearing plants; Japanese indigo and woad, including practical tips on how to grow them at home.

EXPLORE A VARIETY OF SHIBORI METHODS. Throughout the day, Charlotte will guide you through a variety of Shibori techniques, including Kanoko, Arashi, and Nui methods. Working primarily with silk fabrics, you’ll also have the opportunity to experiment with your own small fabric pieces if time allows.

CREATIVE EXPLORATION. This workshop encourages creative exploration, allowing you to develop your own patterns and compositions through guided experimentation. By the end of the session, you will take home a beautifully dyed silk scarf.
