ARASHI: The Japanese Boy Band That Stormed the Music Industry

Also known as pole-wrapping shibori, arashi (Japanese for "storm") shibori is a japanese dye technique that results in diagonal stripes that are reminiscent of storm driven rain. I am going to demonstrate a very basic pattern with only two folds, however true masters of this art are able to produce very intricate patterns, as well as take advantage of the pleating which occurs to create structural pieces that are incredibly beautiful. See some examples of this here. Wow!

I have been doing arashi and igitame shibori for many years and just started an indigo vat for the first time this year. I am ready to try cotton velveteen on my biggest pole. It was very brave to try essentially 2 new techniques at once, with subtle, but elegant results. Good on you! 2ff7e9595c
