Virginia
Indian Ikat Cotton

A medley of oranges and greens.

Suitable for dresses, tops, and shirts. We would make a Florence top or Mathilde skirt.

Ikat is a resist dyeing technique where the threads used for weaving are dyed beforehand. The Ikat threads are bound in a pattern so that the threads covered by the binding 'resist' the dye, creating a design.  The more binding done before weaving, the more complicated the pattern.
