Chinese Indigo Shibori Workshop +
Tea Ceremony
YI CRAFTS LONDON
£10
China is home to 55 ethnic minorities.
Yi Crafts offers authentic experiences of the crafts and cultural traditions of China, especially the beautiful but vanishing traditional handcrafts of its minority ethnicities.
Bai stitch resist tie-dye known as 'ZhaRan' in Chinese and 'Shibori' in Japanese is a traditional craft of the Bai ethnic minority group in Yunnan, southern China.
This craft has existed for over 1000 years and is still practiced today.
In this 2-hours workshop, led by a member of the Bai people, you will:
-
Learn and practice two traditional stitch resist tie-dye techniques
-
Create your own design based on these techniques, and apply it to a provided cotton tote bag or scarf
-
Dye your final product in our natural Indigo dye vat and learn about the dyeing process
At the end of the workshop, you will take home your unique designed cushion cover and practice pieces, and hopefully a new skill!
