Indigo and Shibori scarfs and I am off to Felletin

I dyed some scarfs with indigo, they were all wrapped around polyester tubes in different width and in different ways.




The last one is a woolen scarf which i dyed first in a camomile bath, then wrapped  around the tube and dyed the scarf in an indigo bath at last i dyed the scarf in a madder bath, this is the result.
This scarf will not be for sale, i will keep it myself!

Tomorrow i will go to Felletin  to do a 5 day workshop. Felletin is a small town in the department the Creuse, about 80 km from here.
The workshop is about dyeing and printing fabric. Here can you find the workshop information.
The teacher  is Mireille Vallet, i give you some links about here work here and here
