spectacular!! i work in a museum where we have a carpet in our collection made this way, and i have often speculated how -- reading about the process doesn't even come close to actually seeing someone do it! thank you for posting :)
Can I LOVE this video?! So gorgeous and inspiring! I'm experimenting with Ikat on a small scale for a uni class and this is just so helpful and exciting. Thank you!
Great work! I am an applied textile design student from San Francisco. I would love to learn structural textile design also! Beautiful ikat thanks for sharing!
I've done a lot of ikat too and sent you a video response with my ikat video. The Manasota Weaver's Guild sent an email with your video included in it. You did a fantastic video and beautiful piece.
That is sensational, so much work, I really appreciate the time and effort that goes into that. I have a few pieces of ikat from West Timor which is really beautiful
So great - what type and colour yarn did you use for the weft to allow the warp design to dominate, Whitney? I'm planning a painted warp and this question is vexing me. Thanks for any advice!
Hey! I don't know if you remember me but I met you in Lawrence Kansas when you bartended at the Granada Theater . I'm glad to see you have went so far and you're work is absolutely beautiful. :)
Combination of Ikat and Songket is called as Limar. Silk Limar is the most expensive textile in South East Asia because of the time consuming to produce it.
The result is not as vivid as the colours you used while dyeing, is it a normal process, or the dye just didn't work properly? (Sorry, I don't mean to criticize you, I work with textile dyes myself and I know it's sometimes tricky. I was just wondering).
Thanks for taking the time to document this. Japanese ikat, which I the work that I have mostly encountered, is rectilinear and monochrome. However, there is a show, now, at Los Angeles County Museum of Art, showing Central Asian Ikat which is highly curvilinear and vibrantly polychrome. The method you use, of painting on the dyes again the tied stops, is probably the way that those 19th century weavers worked. That show is up until August 2019 here in Los Angeles. www.lacma.org/art/exhibition/power-pattern-central-asian-ikats-david-and-elizabeth-reisbord-collection
Your work is really great . .... But the patola which is a great indian sari is famous all world for its making method and it is very expensive. That is oldest method for making it . And the patan district is World famous for it ..
Wow, Whitney! This is really beautiful and inspiting. Thanks for sharing! What did you use to tie your warp place keepers? How long did you let the dye set?
Jessica Facette Thank you! I used recycled polyurethane fiber to bind my warp. Anything synthetic that will not absorb your dye will work. I let my dye set for 24 hours after the last color was applied. Hope that is helpful!
Thank you Whitney for sharing an amazing video- wow, you are soooo talented! just wondered how to prepare my warp- I use local fibres (Welsh and Rare breeds wool) and dyes sourced from our breathtakingly beautiful Wales... my own handspun yarn dyed with natural dyes (lichens, gorse, black rosehip, woad etc.)...i would love to make an ikat but am not quite sure how to go about the dyeing process- each dyestuff reacts with a different mordant (woad is especially tricky)! any suggestions?

If you have interest in weaving you can visit India and contents the patola making family so you can learn easy they are live in patan district and state Gujarat. India
MrPisster You're too kind :) If your asking about how I keep the threads in order..You must know that weaving is very mathematical. It requires a lot of precise measuring and counting along with organization, focus and finesse.
Music is distracting!!! Oh how I wish she would explain and turn off the music. Speeding up everything makes it hard to see what is going on! Poor video.
Hey there Lori I am from Kansas! I use PRO MX Fiber Reactive Dyes (aka Procion Dye) I get mine from a local shop in town but you can get them from Pro Chemical and Dye on their website:)
Huge respect to you for your interest and hard efforts you have put into weaving an Indian fabric. Keep shining
spectacular!! i work in a museum where we have a carpet in our collection made this way, and i have often speculated how -- reading about the process doesn't even come close to actually seeing someone do it! thank you for posting :)
That was remarkable. Thank you for taking the time to put that wonderful video together.
Can I LOVE this video?!

Beautiful work. I had no idea Ikat was made, you've taught me well and it is mind blowing! Excellent!
Very impressive and what a gorgeous result! Love the music too!
I can't believe people had negative things to say on this video. It is a work of art and you should be very proud!
Thank you Carrie :)

Wow Whitney!!! That is gorgeous. I was wondering how long it took, but read in the description it takes about three months. That's just incredible.
In Indonesia the women produce fantastic ikat textiles that can take up to 3 or 4 years to produce one piece with natural dyes and hand spun thread.

This is the textile artistic work in sarees of India..I am glad you showed a part of our culture
good job
Fantastic, I really want to try this. Really inspirational and informative. I think I can.

Warp and weft are 100% cotton.
How many days did this take you in all?
Hi Molly! Probably around 200 hours spread over 3 months.

OK talented / beautiful hipster chick, how in the world do you keep them in order??
MrPisster You're too kind :) If your asking about how I keep the threads in order..You must know that weaving is very mathematical. It requires a lot of precise measuring and counting along with organization, focus and finesse.
Whitney Matalone So we get to add smart and meticulous to the list now :) Seriously, great work.

wow
Hii
my ı buy that ikat, ı live in istanbul
Mic drop!
Ikkat is from India.its waved by hand..not like this fake process fake design.. this is definitely not ikkat.
I think tie dye is easier.
Música horrenda
Music is distracting!!! Oh how I wish she would explain and turn off the music. Speeding up everything makes it hard to see what is going on! Poor video.
the one made in India would still be cheaper and feed a family of four.
It's not about owning one, it's about making.
