Synopsis

Written by expert shibori teacher Debbie Maddy, this hands-on book introduces a wide range of resist-dyeing approaches, from shape and stitch resist to pole wrapping, pleating, binding and bound resist. Clear guidance covers the essentials of choosing and preparing fabric, alongside setting up and caring for an indigo vat.

As skills build, the focus moves beyond fundamentals to more advanced methods, including Katano pleating and stitching. Techniques are then put into practice through six projects designed to display newly dyed cloth: a scarf, shawl, apron, pillow, table runner and quilt. A considered choice for makers looking for structured instruction, from beginners through to those ready to refine their process.
