Indigo Dyeing Workshop



Learn the basics of Indigo dyeing by exploring a variety of techniques. You will create a set of 6 hand-dyed cotton napkins which make great gifts for friends and family or yourself!  If  you feel inventive, you could turn these napkins into masks so you feel proud wearing a COVID era mask you made from start to finish!

Traditional shibori, resist, and pole-dyeing techniques will be included with hands-on help. The fee includes all materials needed. Additional materials will be available for purchase to dye. Any fabric or yarn purchased at the store on the day of the event can be dyed at no additional charge.

NO PREVIOUS SKILLS NECESSARY. Come have fun, get messy, explore and see what you can do! Please bring a bagged lunch.  

This is a rain or shine event and you have fair warning:  indigo dye stains.  Wear something that you don't care about as indigo. dye. does. not. come. out!
