Printing and Dyeing Techniques of Blue Printed Cloth

The printing and dyeing technology of blue printed cloth is a kind of anti-dyeing and printing method of indigo printed cloth. The dye is extracted from Polygonum multiflorum. The paste made of soybean flour and lime for anti-dyeing is commonly known as "grey medicine". The paste is leaked to the grey cloth through the type plate and forms patterns. After the cloth is soaked and dried, the part of the "grey medicine" removed is white pattern, and the other is the color dyed. Nowadays, blue printed cloth can be divided into two forms: blue ground white flower and white ground blue flower. Blue and white patterned cloth is printed with only one plate, and the patches of the patterned pattern are not connected with each other.

Wu Yuanxin was selected as the representative inheritor of the printing and dyeing technology of the national intangible cultural heritage blue print cloth. On June 7, 2008, the printing and dyeing techniques of blue printed cloth were approved by the State Council and listed in the second batch of national intangible cultural heritage lists. On May 24, 2018, it was selected as the first national catalogue of revitalization of traditional crafts.

It can be seen that, in the Western Han Dynasty, printing and dyeing blue cloth has been popular among the people. In the book Tiangong Kaiwu of the Ming Dynasty, Yingxing of Song Dynasty recorded that indigo could be extracted from tea blue (i.e. Isatis indigotica), Polygonum blue, Malan blue, Wu blue and amaranth, and described the method of making blue at that time.
