About

If you've ever seen tie-dyed shirts and wondered how they were made, here's your chance to try it out for yourself. After learning different ways to create patterns by folding and tying, we will use multiple fun methods to tie dye our fabric. We will decorate different pieces of clothing and a bright flag working with colored Sharpies, liquid dyes, and bleach.

  • Skill Level: Beginner
  • Registration closes Monday, July 24.
  • A materials fee of $20 is included in the price of the class and covers all materials.

Project

We will finish a few different projects using different types of tie dye - two shirts dyed using different methods, and a Sharpie-dyed flag.

Instructor
Betsy Hagestedt

Betsy has been working with fiber since she was in elementary school, having learned to sew and knit from her mom. As an anthropologist, she uses her fiber practice as a means of connecting with people from other cultures, embracing the universal nature of fiber arts. Knitting gradually became her specialization due to its portability as she began to travel around the world. You can see some of her fiber experiments on her Instagram feed at behestknits. Since starting at BARN she has been learning as many new skills as possible. She is highly involved in torchworking in the Glass Studio, and has started dabbling with welding and woodturning.
