Cotton calico does not resist any kind of dye, I it does not resist the dye!
Resist dyeing is a technique where specific parts of the fabric are covered with a substance that resists the dye, creating patterns or designs. In tie dyeing, fabric is tied or bound in specific ways before dyeing, creating unique patterns where the dye cannot penetrate. Both techniques allow for creative and colorful designs on textiles.
From the Island of Java this highly developed art form and technique of patterns and designs on textiles, historical records show that most of the "Batik" (highly decorated fabric) was reserved for Royalty.Please see related link below!
A technique that uses blue dye to map the lymphatic system was developed in the 1980s and applied to the treatment of melanoma in 1989
Resist dyeing is used to create patterns on fabrics by applying a substance that blocks the dye from coloring the fabric in certain areas. This technique is commonly used in various traditional textile arts such as batik, tie-dye, and shibori to achieve unique and intricate designs. Resist dyeing allows for intricate patterning and designs to be created with vibrant colors.

Yes, the Aztecs were known to create colorful textiles using natural dyes and intricate weaving techniques, but the tie-dye technique, as we know it today, was not specifically practiced by them. They primarily used dye baths and resist dyeing methods to create their vibrant fabrics.
Wax, salt and flour.
He developed the "scratching" technique.
Wax is a traditional resist for water based fabric dyes.
Resist dyeing is a technique where certain areas of a fabric are treated to prevent the dye from coloring them. This can be achieved by using wax, tying, stitching, or applying a resistant substance to create patterns and designs on the fabric. When the fabric is dyed, the resisted areas remain uncolored, resulting in intricate and unique patterns.
I assume you're talking about tie dying. If you're worried about the dye soaking through from one side of the shirt to the other, you can place a piece of cardboard covered with plastic wrap between the front and back of the shirt. If you want an area that resists the dye, to that when you wash the dye out there are areas that have not been dyed, then you need to use a dye resist. There are many kinds, soy, wax, and water based. Water based is the easiest to use but you have to be careful to add dye a little at a time. Flooding the dye piece will wash the resist off too soon. Elmer's blue gel glue is a simple dye resist (make sure it dries for 24 hours before you dye) as are fabric paints (set them with heat before you dye). Also, you cannot soak something with water based dyes in a soda ash presoak. I soak my shirts and then let them dry and then add the water based dye resist. Hope that helps!
