Hand-dyed fabrics, such as Batiks, are fabrics that have been dyed by hand. The dye is applied to the fabric in a variety of ways, such as painting, stamping, or wax-resist dyeing. The fabric is then immersed in a dye bath and allowed to soak until the desired color is achieved. Hand-dyed fabrics are often used for clothing, quilting, and other craft projects. Batiks are a type of hand-dyed fabric that originated in Indonesia and are characterized by their intricate designs and vibrant colors.
