Shibori Experiment Notes

From experiment 1:

Reduce dye, water, and urea. Used 1c of water to 10g dye. Need 1/4 cup water and 2-3g dye.
Fabric scrunched from 120" to approx 12". Cut pipe into manageable lengths.

Because of the number of experiments I still need to do I'm going to leave the pipe long.

Experiment 2 will be more of an arashi technique where I wrap the fabric around the PVC, then wrap it with thread and scrunch it instead of stitching the edges and scrunching.

Future experiments will include:
- Over dye. I'll dye a strip of fabric a solid color and then do either bomaki or arashi with a darker color.
- Fire! Ok, not actual fire, just dye to look like fire. I'll paint oranges and reds and yellows around the fabric in stripes and see how that goes.
- Layers. I'll use a wider strip and wrap it around itself before scrunching. This is to see how the corset fabric will turn out and if it fades going up.
- Folding. If layers don't work well, I'll try folding it in half and either doing bomaki or arashi to see how that works.
