Indigo Vat Prep + Dyeing Video Workshop

 
 

A video workshop to guide you step-by-step though how to set up and use an organic indigo fructose vat.

This simple recipe uses only three natural ingrediants: organic indigo extract powder, fructose and lime and was originally formulated by french natural dyer & scientist Michel Garcia.


You will learn how to use the vat to create beautiful blues on natural fibres, with excellent, long-lasting results, all-over evenly saturated colours.

Troubleshooting info and notes are included on how to keep your vat balanced as you continue to use it, so that it can stay in use for many years, as a closed loop dye system.
