Indigo - in a class of it's own...!

Indigo - indigofera    &   Woad - isatis tinctoria

Indigo... or magic indigo... as I think of it... really is in a class of it's own...

Both indigo & woad will be available for you to 'play' with if you take an indigo course in Staithes with Tricia... 

• start the day picking the woad... then learn how to create woad & indigo vats...

• fold... pleat... clamp... & stitch... fabric... learn a little about the history of 'shibori'

• dye your fabric or thread... as many times of you like depending on how dark you like it...

• then you have a choice... rinse it... leave it to dry... rinse it... or unwrap it...

please note...  if you are attending a course that has been arranged by a group or someone other than the artist... the course contents & requirements maybe different to that written above...
