Option B Solution: Indigo is a dye different than any other. It does not require any mordant. Rather it is dyed through a living fermentation process. The process “reduces” the Indigo, changing it from blue to yellow. In this state, it dissolves in an alkaline solution. The fibre is worked in the solution, or “vat”. When brought out to the air, it is a bright green. Slowly the air changes it to the beautiful deep and rich blue of Indigo.
