Shievoy is an advanced evolution of the traditional Shibori tie-dye technique. By milling precise patterns into wooden blocks, the fabric is bound with architectural accuracy. Much like screen printing, each color layer requires its own dedicated wooden element. The multicolored design is built sequentially, introducing new blocks with each subsequent dye bath. This meticulous process yields the exceptionally fine lines and delicate contours that define the unique Shievoy aesthetic.
