Waves Bandana Indigo Kit

The Waves Bandana is one of the many projects from Kristine's book, The Modern Natural Dyer. This kit is designed to make it easier for you to create the Waves Bandana and to dye with indigo. All materials have been pre-measured. Simply use the contents of the jar at each designated step. The instructions for this kit are found in The Modern Natural Dyer.

Kristine also has a video on Creativebug on indigo dyeing! It's a fun resource to help you set up your indigo vat and learn a few techniques for creating designs on your bandanas! You can tune into the class here.

This kit contains the materials to make your very own indigo vat. The bandanas in this kit make a great canvas to explore the world of solid blue, or use the thread included to make wave-like patterns. There is enough dye in this kit to dye many more items - like t-shirts, pillowcases, dresses, etc. 

• Two white bandanas (approx. 72g)
