fabric dyeing techniques

Fabric dyeing involves applying color to textiles through various techniques. Tie-dye uses folding or tying fabric before dyeing to create patterns. Batik involves applying wax to fabric to resist dye, producing intricate designs when dyed. Dip dyeing submerges fabric into a dye bath for a gradient effect. Piece dyeing colors unfinished fabric, often uniformly. Fabric can also be printed with dyes or pigments to create detailed patterns. Each method influences the fabric’s appearance and texture, allowing for a wide range of artistic and functional effects in textile design.
