Shibori with a Twist

Here are two more shibori scarves I worked on this weekend. Both were dyed in shades of beige with local leaves (one with gardenia leaves and the other with bird of paradise leaves) and then pole wrapped and dipped in Indigo. 

When I wrapped this one I twisted it as I compressed it and then every once in a while I changed the direction of the twist.

 
Here's a close-up of the pattern I got from mixing the twists

 
This one was twisted in only one direction.
