About the Craft
Ikat is one of the oldest textile dyeing techniques. It is most prevalent in Indonesia, India and Japan.
The resist is formed by binding individual yarns or bundles of yarns in the desired pattern, the yarns are then dyed. The bindings are then be changed to create a new pattern and the yarns dyed again with another colour. This process may be repeated multiple times to produce elaborate, multicolored patterns.
A characteristic of Ikat textiles is the blurriness to the design. The blurriness is a result of the extreme difficulty the weaver has lining up the dyed yarns so that the pattern comes out perfectly in the finished cloth.
