Techniques Used

Stencil dyeing

In stencil dyeing (kataezome or katazome), first a stencil is created by laying a pattern over shibugami (a durable washi paper treated with tannin) and the design is cut into the paper. The resulting stencil is used to apply paste resist to create a repeating pattern that can then be dyed.
