Ikat is one of the most complicated approaches to dyeing ... Some sections of the yarn to be used in weaving are knotted or covered with an impermeable material and then the yarn is dyed. The dye does not penetrate these sections, so the different sections of yarn display different colors. 1, record 1, English, - ikat%20dyeing
