DYEING INDIGO BLUE CLOTH
(Iyo Kasuri)


We tried to dye cloth
indigo blue
at Mingei Kasuri Kaikan.

Please enjoy our work!




I am choosing items to dye.
Mingei Kasuri Kaikan
(Indigo blue cotton cloth hall)
The distinctive odor of indigo repels moths,
so indigo blue cotton cloth was
very good for farmwork.

While we were binding, we were looking forward to seeing how success was the handkerchieves.
Various patterns can be dyed
depending on
how you tie the threads.
Soak the handkerchief in the die vat.
Every time we sashed them, they became brighter. The contrast of the color blue and white was clear.



Finished!! Look!

There are simple patterns
in dark blue and white,
which is the characteristic
of Iyo Kasur.
Why don't you try to
make
your unique items
with indigo dyeing?
