Recommended Posts

In this workshop, you will learn the steps involved in creating an indigo vat and experience the magic that results from indigo dyeing. After preparing the vat, we?ll take time while it rests to prepare yarn and fabric to make solid colours and patterns. We?ll cover traditional methods of shibori resist dyeing ? folding, clamping, scrunching and binding - to create beautiful repeat patterns.


There will also be a chance to discuss some of the keys aspects of dyeing with indigo (fibre preparation, maintaining a vat and overdyeing to create complex colours).


The cost of the session is ?65. All participant will receive comprehensive notes on the processes covered and samples of fabric and yarn dyed in the workshop. You can bring along a piece of fabric or a small garment to dye in the workshop but I will have some silk, wool and organic cotton available to purchase and dye on the day.


This session takes place at Space at 61, 61 Cheltenham Road, Nunhead SE15 3AF. To book your space on this workshop, please email me [email protected]

    • The Council allowed The Co op rear customer car parking area to be built on and as a result, the roads around, had customers parking in their road. and the Councils answer to that is CPZ in the whole area. the residents of Ashbourne grove do not want CPZ, as they feel its just another stealth tax, and that the money is going into street maintenance, for which we already pay exorbitant High Rates. another income for life for the Council and will increase year on year like the garden waste bins and cycle bins.   
    • How mean-minded to call the creative project of a group of enterprising youngsters, using their time productively 'foul'?  Surely taking the initiative to set this u,p so young people can be outside and exercising is a positive and productive thing to be admired? 'Underage drinking and drugs' are more likely to happen when young people have nowhere to go and nothing to do (plus they can take place anywhere!) . How is a derelict pub better?
    • Please dont redevelop....the skatepark is a  rare place where young kids can chat, connect, and do something outside of the addictive but dull world of the internet. Community is one of our most precious parts of life.
