Ikkat Silks


What is ikkat fabric?



Ikkat is a particular fabric pattern that is achieved with a process called resist dyeing, in which various techniques are used to make certain parts of the fabric “resist” dyeing. Despite the fact that “ikkat” is produced traditionally in many places of the world, this malay term for the pattern has stuck in the international fashion design lexicon.

How is ikkat fabric made?

Ikkat fabric can be made with any textile fiber that takes well to dye. Common traditional ikkat materials include silk and wool, but you can also dye rayon, polyester, and a variety of other synthetic fibers the same way.

Once the fabric yarn is acquired, it is bunched into thick ropes and dyed in a particular pattern. Then, the bindings are removed, and the yarn is laid flat for weaving. Once the fabric is woven, the pattern that was originally dyed onto the yarn bunch is visible. Like any other textiles, ikkat may then be treated, dyed again, or subjected to any number of different processes before it is cut, sewn, packaged, and shipped.
