The process consists of stitching the heavy weight paper horizontally, then folding it and dip dying it on an indigo vat and with walnut dye.
Recipe Details

The stitching holds the paper together as it is folded, heavy paper tends to break when folded but does not dissolve or loose shape when dip dyed.
The folded paper is dip dyed at the edges, wherever it’s folded.
