Traditional Dyeing Process By Hand

Indigo blue-printing is a practice of dyeing fabrics that has a long tradition. White patterns are created on fabrics dyed blue with indigo. Today, there are just a few indigo blue-printing workshops left in Europe. We joined two Austrians who belong to the last of their trade - Miriam and Joseph Kóo are holding up the family tradition by working with indigo blue-dyeing. They show us how they create charming, timeless textiles by hand. In 2018, indigo blue-dyeing was added to UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage list - rightly so, we think!

Those prints are uniquely beautiful and keeping the family heirloom/tradition for a 💯 years is something this couple should be very proud of. I do hope the tradition would carry on for more generations to come!!!

Meine Oma aus Tirol hat mir damals ein Dirndl aus so einem Stoff genäht, das war so toll! Schön, dass es dieses Handwerk noch gibt.
