The Ikat or Ikkat pattern

is one of my favourite patterns. Ikat is a dyeing technique used to pattern textiles that employs a resist dyeing process similar to tie-dye on either the warp or weft fibers prior to dyeing. The word ikat derives from the malay word mengikat "to tie".
Here are some examples from my home.
