Learn how to use dye as a creative strategy for repurposing textiles while fostering a sense of joy and experimentation. In this class, we will be using Fiber reactive Procion pigments that produce bright colors and do not bleed when washed. Students will learn to prepare fabrics such as cotton, silk and linen, learn about color and how to mix dyes. They will also experiment with dye application and will be introduced to a variety of techniques such as direct application, tie dye and immersion dyeing. We will create one silk scarf and four samples of dye experiments that you can later refer to when giving fabrics at home a new life! All materials are provided, but students are encouraged to bring in garments they no longer wear to experiment with.
