The second section shows you how to use motifs to create pattern: learn how to create and position designs, including traditional arrangements such as Karamatsu and Tatewaku, create composite designs and get tips on how to plan your own patterns.
Finally, the book contains a complete guide to dyeing ? it contains recipes, tips and advice so that you can get the very best from every dye bath you make.
