Indigo dying and asian bookbinding

In this course you will learn to create natural indigo vats, using benign ingredients such as fruit sugar, lime, and henna. We will dye textiles, paper, leather, and parchment. We will explore a variety of folding and resist techniques (shibori). We will also create indigo inspired books using Asian bookbinding techniques, such as Japanese bindings and accordion folds.
