Let's make an interested indigo dye handkerchief.
Step 1:






Fold the square cotton in half;
make both sides with organ folding;
fold to a triangle shape;
back side with organ folding to a triangle too;
at last, the cotton will be a triangle wholly.
Step 2:

Both sides are clamped with iron clips and clamped with a wooden clamp in the middle.
Step 3:

Put it into warm water (about 50 degrees) for half an hour.
Step 4:

Mix dyes then put the cotton into for about 10 to 20 minutes. But please dry the water first before put into the dye.
Step 5:




Take of the clips after dyeing. You can soak it longer if darker color wanted. Color is yellow-green when you open the fabric now. It’ll become dark green for slowly oxidizing, then become blue at last.
Step 6:

Dry it in air and iron it. There comes the indigo dye handkerchief.
Step 7:



There’s another pattern with similar folding ways like following. Pictures for help.
