Katazome is a form of paste resist surface design. A paste is made from rice flour and is painted through a stencil, on a piece of white cloth, to define a pattern. Wherever the paste sticks to the cloth, it will resist, or prevent, any color from staining that spot, when you immerse the cloth in a dye bath.
The paste is washed off once the dyeing is complete and the pattern created from the stencil and paste, is revealed.
