I washed out the itajime I dyed yesterday, when it was wet it didn't look very promising but as I ironed it dry the variations in the blue shapes came clear. There are also some very subtle shadows in the white areas that give it a great deal of intrest.
Your detail makes the colour look as though it vibrates against the paler, white areas. Fascinating effect.

ReplyDeleteI was surprised by the effect too (pleasantly) the shadows sort of preserve the ghost of the folded shape it was in when it was dyed.
