Tie-Dye

Tie-dye is a colorful fabric dyeing technique that involves folding, twisting, or crumpling fabric and then binding it with strings or rubber bands. This process creates patterns where different sections resist dye, resulting in unique designs. Traditionally popular in the 1960s counterculture, tie-dye is associated with vibrant, psychedelic colors and is often used on t-shirts, clothing, and accessories. The outcome is unpredictable, making each piece one-of-a-kind. Tie-dye has experienced several revivals, appealing to various age groups and fashion trends, and is often seen as a fun and artistic expression.
