[ Shibori ]
Japanese resist-dyeing technique whereby fabric is folded, twisted, scrunched, or otherwise shaped into place, tied with knots, and then dyed indigo. The knots "resist" the dye, resulting in unique patterns that consist of colored and uncolored areas. In Japanese, "shibori" means to wring or squeeze.
Shibori has been used to dye patterns on silk in Japan since the eighth century.
"Kara-shibori" is a technique to make shrinks on a textile, without dyeing.
