Tie and dye refers to a process of dyeing of fabrics in a way that certain portions covered by resists or bindings do not acquire the dye colour during the colouring process. In other words, the dye is prevented from penetrating portions that are not meant to be coloured, thereby acquiring the design or pattern through the non-coloured portions. This pattern becomes visible when the weaving of the carefully arranged threads on warp and weft takes place. An age old tradition, it has survived till this day as one of the oldest, finest and most widely used techniques the world over. India is one of the leading countries in the use of the tie and dye method for fabrics.
