Abi Patten

Under my trade name ‘AbiDashery’, I've been making a living from tie dye and upcycling full time and been honing my tie-dye skills since 2014. After having a huge amount of fun and receiving glowing responses from my family and friends, I took a leap of faith and opened an Etsy store. As my Etsy shop began to grow, I realised there was a market for upcycled and tie dyed clothing and so, in 2016, I launched my own website: www.abidashery.com

Since then my business has grown, and my tie dye work has appeared online, in magazines and in tie-dye kits. Over time I've really focused on improving my business’ sustainability, and am constantly striving to make sure my designs are as eco-conscious as possible.

Abidashery also dyed the official merchandise for Download Festival, Camp Bestival and Electric Picnic.

I live in Durham, UK, with my partner, three cats and 10 guinea pigs.
