Abstract
There are many kinds of indigo, such as indigo, woad and so on. Among them, indigos are planted much in Japan. In general we can bring up indigo very easily.My students and I planted indigo and harvested the leaves. We tried three different dyeing methods with these leaves. First I tried "tatakizome" bashing methods of dyeing. Second we tried the method with juice produced by crushed leaves. Third we tried the method with thoroughly dyed leaves padding some chemicals. I found that cloth was well dyed in each way. And each method does not require any advanced special equipments. It was obvious that they have a number of advantages, such as safe, easy and clean procedure.
Keywords : Indigo, leaf, dye,tatakizome
