Shibori is an ancient Japanese dyeing technique that creates patterns in fabric by binding, stitching,
folding, or twisting. Using rich complementary colors and high quality, satiny silk ribbon, this ancient
dyeing technique is what makes Shibori silk so unique. All Shibori is hand-dyed so color lots may
differ slightly.

Shibori is sold in 18 in lengths (1/2 yd). When getting more then one piece of the same color, it will
be left in one continuous length.
