Specific Technique

Silk yarns are tied in slip knots in small sections before dying to create an uneven warp pattern. They are then dyed with acid dye. Large scale green grid supplementary warp is then placed over the top. Plain weave, woven with pink and red silk weft yarns, is introduced to create subtle differences between the grid sections.
