Looking for fun things to do at home? Learning a new craft sounds like an engaging way to spend time, and in this virtual class, you will make a one-of-a-kind indigo-dyed cloth.
Shibori is the Japanese art of binding and folding fabric in different patterns before dyeing. Using natural indigo powder, you will learn how to use different binding techniques to create unique patterns on a cotton tea towel.
Your teacher is Cara of Coastal Design Workshops, who will walk you through, step-by-step, the calming and enjoyable experience of naturally dyeing your fabrics. She will share all of her tips and tricks to make a true blue creation of your very own.
Everything you need comes in DIY kits, so all you have to do is join the class over Zoom and get ready to learn a really cool craft. At the end of your time, you'll have a dyed cloth to display and new skills to make more projects.

Recent reviews of Learn Shibori Indigo Dyeing at Home

  • 5/5 from Amy Holmes, attended Aug 2026: Loved my class with Cara. First time trying this art form. Made two tea towels. Stunning. Look forward to continuing to try new techniques.
  • 5/5 from Natalie Maxwell, attended Aug 2026: This class was a lot of fun. The instructor was very clear and thorough in their explanations of what to do to indigo dye. Highly Recommend.
  • 5/5 from Melissa Washburn, attended Aug 2025: This is more than a class, it’s a gateway to a cool new hobby. Cara really sparked something for us! She is an excellent instructor and made it very fun. The results were excellent (even better than some of the previews). The dye kit will do a lot more than the tea towels included and the dye bath keeps for a week afterwards, so we were running around the house grabbing everything white. It was a great way to spend time with friends and we’ve been sharing the results with each other afterwards. I would recommend this class for sure!
  • 5/5 from Barbara Simmons, attended Jan 2023: We enjoyed this class as a family and had a great time learning Shibori techniques. The instructor was friendly and knowledgeable and the demonstration easy to follow. Highly recommended.
  • 5/5 from Katie Simmons, attended Jan 2023: This was a great class! Our instructor Cara was friendly and helpful and the kit had everything we needed besides running water and towels. Really lovely to end up with two tea towels, a tote and a pair of socks plus enough indigo dye left over to do several more clothing items. Eager to try some of the other classes from this instructor like candlemaking and knitting!
  • 1/5 from Ryan Kraten, attended May 2022: The teacher didn’t send the zoom link and never contacted me. I tried texting and calling the phone number provided by ClassBento but nobody answered. I will be requesting a refund.
