Abi Patten

Abi Patten, under her trade name ‘AbiDashery’, has been making a living from tie dye full time. Totally self-taught, Abi has been honing her tie-dye skills since 2012. After receiving glowing responses from her family and friends, in 2013 Abi took a leap of faith and opened an Etsy store. As her Etsy shop began to grow, she realized there was a market for upcycled and tie dyed clothing and so, in 2016, she launched her own website: www.abidashery.com

Since then her business has grown, and Abi’s work has appeared online, in magazines and in tie-dye kits. Over time Abi has focused on improving her business’ sustainability, and is constantly striving to make her designs are as eco-conscious as possible.

Abi lives in Durham, UK, with her partner and three cats.
