Shibori inspired dye piece

I am finally getting around to posting about a piece that I did last week.  I used Japanese Shibori techniques as my inspiration.  Shibori techniques are different ways of folding, stitching, or compressing a length of fabric to create a resist for the dye.  There are many ways that this can be done.   I used pole wrapping as my inspiration.  I wound a length of fabric around a pvc pipe in a diagonal direction.  Then I wrapped the whole thing with string and compressed it by pushing the fabric into itself from both ends as tight as I could get it.  After that I dyed it using fiber reactive dye in sky blue.  I waited for a day and washed it out.  Here are the results.

 I didn't get a perfect pattern, but I'm still pretty happy with my results.
Have a happy week,
