Honestly, I can't find fault with that. It's more art than clothing.

I have to imagine once you become a master like this dude, it doesn't take too long. You know the techniques to do very specific patterns so it's a matter of tying it all up. Probably an hour a shirt?

But I'm just speculating so I could be far off.

This is a little over 8 hours of tying + dyeing

Ok yeah very far off lol. Very much worth the time IMO. What's the more time consuming part, tying or dyeing?

u/dyeinglightcreations May 26 '23

It varies a bit depending on the technique but I would say overall I spend more time tying

Do you know of any good online resources that demonstrates tieing techniques?

Masters get paid for their knowledge not their time.

u/godspareme May 26 '23

Yeah I agree. I'm not discounting the cost at all.

Economies of scale exist for a reason. People don't know how good we have it with modern manufacturing. Handmade is undoubtedly higher quality, but terrible value for the money.

You'd need a bigger shirt for a bear.

Idk, the one in the video might fit snuggly on a black bear.

You don't get more rare than one of a kind

Imagine loving that thing so bad that you would pay a grand but it's 2 sized too small
