Stitch resist fabric waiting to be dyed

Cheikhouna uses a stitch-resist technique called sitiba, in which the design is hand-stitched into the fabric before dyeing. As you can guess, this is a very time-consuming practice, but the results are stunning! Sitiba is rarely produced anymore not only because of the amount of time it takes, but because of the complexity of the technique. Cheihkouna is one of the last dyers in Dakar who practices this centuries-old technique, and while he trains apprentices, he stitched every piece of fabric for our production himself. 

You may be more familiar with wax resist, otherwise known as batik! The natural materials that Cheikhnouna uses to create his dyes make his batiks and sitiba fabrics extra special!

    Brilliant and Bright Lemony Sunshine ☀️

    Another WOW fabric from Zuri using the sitiba stitch-resist method of hand-stitching before dyeing. The softness, the uniqueness, the brilliant amazingness of this shirt has earned it a spot in my growing collection. My mood is instantly elevated whenever she is my day’s choice. Let the fun begin!

    Cheerful and a great travel companion

    The fabric is soft, the colour joyous, and the pattern is so elegant! This shirt is perfect for travel as it always looks fresh. I live the cotton -linen combo as the wrinkles in all linen drives me batty!
