I wish the workers doing the dyeing would be provided with a continual supply of rubber gloves, i order to keep the chemical dyes out of their hands.

I now understand why the Batik material is so expensive! A friend asked me what batik is, I told her a fancy tye die.

I have even more application for batiks, now.., I just bought some that is double the width if the above video, has to be even harder to work with.

That is crazy labor intensive. Glad our fabric addiction can support their economy.
