Resumen

Ikat (from the Indonesian/Malay mengikat, ‘to tie up’) is a very elaborate way of decorating cotton and silk textiles by resist-dyeing the yarns before weaving. Designs are reserved by tying the yarns in such a way that the untied sections will absorb dye when immersed in a colour bath. For subsequent colours, new bindings will have to be applied, and, depending on the design, earlier ones removed.

Skilled craftspeople can work with amazing precision in preparing the yarns before dyeing and weaving. Ikat textiles can be recognised from a slightly jagged appearance in the patterns. The technique, of which Ikat Patterns contains some hundred outstanding samples, has been used for centuries in various parts of the world, and it is still widely practised in India and Southeast Asia.

Agile Rabbit Editions contain stunning images for use as a graphic resource, or inspiration. All the illustrations are stored in high-resolution format on the enclosed free CD-ROM and are ready to use for professional quality printed media and web page design. The pictures can also be used to produce postcards, or to decorate your letters, flyers, etc. They can be imported directly from the CD into most design, image-manipulation, illustration, word-processing and e-mail programs; no installation is required. For most applications, single images can be used free of charge.
