4 Types Of Shibori


Shibori– 4 types

I am not using technical (Japanese) names for these, just my descriptive names.

There are other variations and types but these are 4 I will define.

1.       Pole wrap

                Many ways to wrap

                (Rope or other poles)

2.       Clamp resist

                Various objects

3.       Stitched

                Hand

                Machine

4.       Tie dye or folds
 Various ways to tie

  Common tshirt      Grateful dead look


Within each category there are many ways to wrap, clamp, stitch or tie.

There are also various types of dyes and even paints that can be used.

Add to that many ways to color and/or layer and you could spend a lifetime doing shibori and never repeat.
