Back Cover InformationShibori is an ancient Japanese resist dyeing technique that contemporary American Dyers have enlivened with tie-dye-inspired colors, resulting in an exuberant interplay between color and texture. In Shibori: Creating Color and Texture on Silk, artist Karren K. Brito demonstrates her rendition of American shibori, sharing her authoritative knowledge of silk, dyes, dyeing, and discharge and revealing how to formulate colors. Create a variety of resists, and set texture. Brito's sumptuous work shimmers with iridescent color and eye-catching pleating, which she creates by combining pole- wrapping and other types of resists with discharge and over dyeing. This beautifully designed and illustrated book provides a thorough understanding of each step in the shibori process and the information needed to execute original designs. Table of Contents
