all the rage: ikat


Ikat is a perfect example of trends coming back around... it comes and goes pretty quickly but while it's hip, it packs a punch. It's not a print, but rather a method of weaving using resist dyeing (essentially glorified tie-dyeing)... which explains why there are so many unique variations of Ikat.

I'm a fan... What do you think?

  2. Check out PushPull (http://pushpullcambodia.com/). I worked with most of this crew (including the villagers) while I was out in Cambodia. They are wonderful people!
