CityOn [Shaanxi and Gansu intangible cultural heritage exhibition] continues to be on display

Take you to a thousand-year-old appointment with the intangible cultural heritage

An intangible cultural heritage that will never fade away - Tie-dyeing

Use yarn, thread and string as tools
Using tying, sewing, embellishing, clamping and other techniques
After several immersions in a natural plant dye bath
A colorful and vivid image of a handmade tie-dye work finish

As an ancient and traditional hand-dyeing technique
Now, tie-dye belongs to the national intangible cultural heritage

Tie-dye contains the artistic craftsmanship of folk artists.
Each piece of tie-dye is a vivid work of art.
This unique artistic effect is even more difficult to achieve with mechanical printing and dyeing processes

The three main methods of tie-dyeing are pinch-dyeing, tying and stitching

Pitch-dyeing method - simple and natural patterns
Bamboo, wood, sticks and other equipment are used to tie and dye the fabric
Strictly natural dyes are used.

Tying method - both artistic and design-oriented
You need to pull up a little bit of fabric according to the pre-design, or smooth the long strip
or make various kinds of folding
Finally, it is tied with twine

Stitching method - concrete patterns
Pre-drawn pattern shapes are used for stitching
Drawing and dyeing at the end

What's said in books is superficial; What's obtained in practice is essential
This week, CityOn will invite the intangible cultural heritage teacher
To share the knowledge of ancient tie-dyeing
and provide materials to teach you how to make handmade items
