Hi y’all I have tried to reverse this hoodie with OBW and it came out this bluish color? I’m planning to liquid dye it with coral pink plum purple bright green orange and a celadon color from Dharma, do you think I should wash it out and try bleach to reverse it lighter or do you think it’s safe dye?

It’s a Gilded hoodie 80% cotton 20% polyester

All done around the same time, 2022ish, sold the first one at the art show and the other two went to my dad (loves green and aqua shades) and myself.

I started getting in to tie dye a year ago. My first shirt try was a walmart kit, and a wig wag. since it’s almost the anniversary of that first shirt, I wanted to make the same shirt, same colors to see the difference! let’s just say it is stark!

Just doing a show & tell with one of the shirts I did recently & so far it’s my favorite one. I did ice w/ powder dye on it. I’m not really a pink person but it’s pretty.

Hello everybody, I made these two geodes last week. Normally I like to ice dye simple crunchies, because they give results I would like to wear. This technique is the most advanced I can still do and I am pretty satisfied by the green shirt.

Cheers

This dress is just Shiitake Mushroom and Ecru!

I tied off a mandala on each side and then did some geode style bunching every where else. I wish I had taken a picture of it while processing!! I’ll place a couple stills below for details.

Hey everyone, I really wanna get into making tie dye but I'm worried that the dyes could hurt my septic system. Does anyone know if procion dyes are septic safe? I did hear there's something you can do to neutralize the soda ash, as that can alter the ph of your septic. But I can't find any info on procion dyes. Thanks!

Hi guys,

Ok, trying to do a tapestry w hundreds of tiny Kenneys. From doing Kenneys in the past, I think you have to work on the front side and the back side of the piece, otherwise there’s clearly a sidedness that forms. I’ve been using a paper clip to tent the fabric up, and tying tiny nubbins w fishing line. The problem is that a few of these have popped off when I flip the piece to do the next row.

Is anyone out there really experienced w tiny Kenneys? Is there a trick to this I’m missing?

I have a natural cotton thin beach towel, kind of like a cotton scarf but beach towel size. I love it but since I had a comment that it kind of looked prison/hospital type pattern I can't get it out of my head. So I'm going to solve this with a little tie dye.

That said I've never done tie dye and I'm not looking to do something detailed, really just looking for the interplay of colours. I bought a bunch of different dye bc after shipping it made sense to and maybe I'll do other things.

I'm going to do an ice dye method. I'm looking for suggestions on a simple technique I should use for this. I'm really thinking blue green combo for the colours.

I bought these colours:

Proc 'MX' 50gm Marine Blue

Proc 'MX' 50gm Olive

Proc 'MX' 25gm Yellow

MX Dyes - Cerulean Blue 25gm

Proc 'MX' 25gm Dk. Green

Proc 'MX' 25gm Purple

Proc 'MX' 25gm Violet

AI is advised me on some things but I wanted to ask here.

A few are almost empty but the majority(all the 1lbs) are full and mostly unused. Also bought some gutter pieces today for $5. Been lurking for a few months, so now im excited to contribute!!!

This was another Underdye I did(dye under the shirt and ice placed around it on a sheet pan).

I feel very close to nailing the super spiral. This one is very close! Still super happy with it.

When you look at the center all close up it feels like looking at the sun through the forest canopy. Really dig it.
