Tie-dyeing

Textile sample,
Susan Bosence

Grey dyed cotton cloth with lines of tied-resist circles made by tieing in half grains of rice before the cloth was dyed. In the Yoruba tradition this form of resist dyeing is called adire eleso, and tiny millet seeds rather than rice, are bound into the cloth with raffia before dying.

1960s
