When did tie-dyeing originate?

Tie dyeing has a long history. Originated in the Yellow River Basin. When it originated is uncertain. The earliest existing tie-dyed products come from Xinjiang. According to records, as early as the Eastern Jin Dynasty, knotted and dye-proof twisted valerian silk was produced in large quantities. Tie-dyeing was a mature technology in the Eastern Jin Dynasty in 408 AD. At that time, the twisted Valeriana products had simple small clusters, such as butterflies, wintersweet and begonia. There are also overall patterns, such as "roe valerian" with white dots, "agate valerian" with larger dots and "deer fetus valerian" with purple spots, which are shaped like sika deer.

Tie-dyeing is a traditional and unique dyeing process in China. ? One of the traditional manual dyeing techniques in China is the dyeing method of partially knotting the fabric so that it cannot be dyed.
