Todays Itajime

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.

Hi Julie
I 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.
