So glad to find this info. I knew there was a way to dye clothes in the washing machine and I vaguely remember doing it myself but that was decades ago and I started to think I imagined it all, lol. Now I can dye a few items again.😊
I have a top,load washing machine but it’s an new one. They do not fill with water. If you open the top,of the machine during the cycle, there is almost no water in there. I’m in Canada but I’m sure North American machines are all the same. Can I dye some capri pants in my machine?
Love to see a much more recent and helpful video. Do you know how much dye I should use if I am trying to make a specific color from rit’s color formula?
I have a white cotton tablecloth that I plan on dying with the Wine colored dye because I've spilled wine on it and could never get out all the stains no matter what I tried. It's a good quality tablecloth so I might as well dye it WINE colored, LOL. I love that you demonstrate using the product with both front and top load washers. I have a front load and it's not clear to me when to add the Fixative and I think it's too much liquid to add to the fabric softener compartment. Should I stop the washer before the rinse cycle and just pour it directly on the tablecloth? I think I can open the door before it fills. I just don't want to mess up the process. Thanks!
Thank you...this is so helpful to know I can dye right in the washing machine rather than mess with containers!! 😊 Should I add the entire bottle of fixative into the rinse cycle or measure out a specific amount?
You don't need the entire bottle. When you are dying fabric in pots, you take the fabric out of the water and spray it down with the fixative, so you are really only using a fraction of the bottle. When I use the washing machine method, I use a couple of tablespoons, which is probably more than is even necessary. Best of luck with your project Jennifer! Dye is fun. You got this!
Hi Michaela, you can add both salt and vinegar with mixed clothing types but it might dye unevenly since each fiber reacts differently. If you want a uniform color, focus on garments with a single dominant fiber type.
If I wanna make a navy blue summer cardigan pink , would I have to do a bleach and water soak for 30 mms to lighten it enough for it to be dyed pink? It would be kinda pretty if it turned out to be a kind of magenta but my goal is a neutral pink.
Rit makes a color remover to use on fabrics before dying and it will remove most of the dye and color to have a clean canvas to work from! Apparently it doesnt contain bleach! Which I would say is a good thing, since bleach is so strong and could eat some materials/fiber! But I think that would be your best bet before dying something dark! ... your navy blue probably wouldnt be able to be died pink because its a primary color and too dark of a shade. (Look up color theory/ color wheel) But if you wanted to turn It green that would be possible or even purple. but for green adding yellow to the blue material would probably work, or simply putting a green dye over top of the blue to make an emerald green or something! but again depending on how dark your navy is depends on if it can be changed. A dark red/burgundy over top of the navy would for sure make a dark plum purple color! Hope that helps! Would love to know what you do!
Thank you... SO MUCH! I was scared to death of the mess I might make trying to do this with buckets, tubs and all that. I am going to give this a go for sure. Now I just need to pick what I'm going to toss in the wash...
You got this! Dying can be such a fun experiment! We have tons of other dying tutorials too if you are looking for a different look. You can find them here - ua-cam.com/play/PLJaX2D8UTb3U9lnzkSXT9QKt4J3LJmRJB.html
When does the fixative get added. I've read so many instructions and watched this video too. I'd like step by step instructions. I've never dyed anything in Canada but lots of things I my home country many years ago with a powder dye with salt added. There was no fixative needed
I'm doing a class full, 26 youth sized shirts. I'm pre-washing them, and they will fold them and bind with elastics. Can I put them in my front loading He machine, and follow these directions? If not, suggestions?
How are you supposed to know how much your clothes weigh in order to know how much dye to purchase. Is there some kind of clothes weighing machine or something?
If you have access to a kitchen scale or postal scale, that would be great, but you can also way yourself holding and not holding the fabric and subtract the difference.
I'm going to be dying a heavy cardigan using two boxes of the powder. The fabric is 60 cotton 40 acrylic and instructions say to wash on cold. Should I dye on warm or hot? I don't want to shrink my cardigan...also, is it one cup of salt total or per box?
I HAVE A SMALL PAIR OFF CURTAINS, WHICH ARE LIFHT BURNT ORANGE AND SAGE GREEN. I WANT TO DYE THEM GREY ( NOT NESACCARILY GETTING RID OF THE PATTERN. ANYONE THINK RIT ALL PURPOSE DYEWITH FIXTURE WOULD WORK FOR ME. The only dyes I can find online are plain with no pattern? I can't see why. Maybe black would be better as winter coming and I was going to make it into a simple roman blind. Any ideas
you should have shown us how deep was the colour at the end of it all? Also we have a front loader, which means we can't open the machine to add anything half way through the cycle
I want to dye my white large comforter, black. It's way too large to dye it in my washing machine, do you have a video I can turn to, or do you have any tips or tricks that could help?
How can I stop my front loader to ensure my large sofa covers are evenly dyed? Will I have to add more dye every time I stop? Also, how do I do this method with custom color dye?
Thr fixative will help the color from bleeding/fading. But when you are done dying in machine and then run a cleaning cycle thru it.... I would still wash another load cycle with some old towels or material you don't care If dye wer to get on...just to be sure the machine is truly dye free!! Same for the dryer if you use it to dry the newly dyed item! And definitely wash the item you just dyed by itself the first several times it needs to be laundered! I'd rather be safe than sorry!! Any dye that were to fade onto other clothes would be so random and splotchy! 🤦♀️! Hope this all makes sense and helps!!
Just make sure it it set to an XL sized load! Honestly, I use that setting regardless. The more water in your machine the easier the wash cycle will be on your machine.
How about a 100% cotton hoodie sweater that has synthetic embroidery, it is my husband work uniform, but the blue has faded out, the company’s logo is red, white and blue. How I can prevent that the logo would not get dyed?
You did not clarify when to use salt or vinegar, just: depending upon the fabric... Can you clarify, please? Also: can you use natural dyes, such as beet juice, for example?
Cotton takes salt and nylon takes vingear, there is kore info on which needs it on RIT website. I dye my pants black and use salt in the mix. But i have a top loader so i fill the water up first, depending on size of the load to how much water, i mix the salt and add dish soap along with the dye.
@@aliciamehl6179 o yea this tripped me out too when i first started to dye my pants, but yep, the soap helps spread and deepen the dye into the clothing or items of choice. Still, everytime i dye my pants, which is every 6 months, i try to get them pitch dark which they end up somewhat darker than before. I even buy more dye to add a little extra, but eh, same result sorta. I think next time i will try the bucket method instead of the washer. Side note too, im gumna try vinegar next time on my pants too, i have a feeling they may get a deepen the color better than salt. I say this because whenever i have had bought new clothes, some have that vinegar scent or similar, i figure that is part of the dyeing process. Although they say to use salt on cotton than vinegar, but again they say dont swim after eating or go feed a chupacabra enchiladas con machatas ya knows😂
ok so tried it and here the cons : 1. the water isn't that hot and doesn't remain hot over 30 mins. 2, the water volume is much higher than the 1-2 gallons that should be used and dilutes the color intensity. 3. when the spin cycle finishes i noticed spots on the cloth corresponding to the hole in the drum. I dont recomend the washing machine for this
This sounds very do able even for me who needs a fool proof way of dying. The only issue I have is how to make sure the washing machine is 100% clean after dying. I worry that I won't be able to clean it all the way and that the dye will get all over other clothes I wash afterward. I did listen to the directions, but I'm still hesitant.
Main thing is to figure out if it is natural or synthetic fiber (cotton/wool vs polyester), because natural and synthetic fibers need two different types of dyes (it will tell what is it for on the dye packaging). One way I know is by burning fabric - polyester will melt and smell like burning plastic. Cotton and wool doesn't melt, they burn up like a piece of paper and smell like burning paper (cotton) or burning hair (wool). See on the inside of the covers if there's a tiny amount of excess fabric you can trim off and test it on. Btw, if it is wool, make sure to avoid high temperatures or the item will shrink.
Was thinking the same thing. I believe, from what i researched, that vinegar is the best for jeans and wool fabric, but i am unsure. Last time i used salt for my pants, and they lasted for about 6 months staying in the tint of black i dyed them in, and heard vinegar is better when dyeing them as opposed to salt tgat i used.
@@latenbargestin5918 we did that, we mixed it in a large tub and then let it soak for a few hours, unfortunately nothing we’ve done has fixed it but we were able to bleach the shirt and the blotches came out but the shirt ended up being grey, not a big deal
Problem....I want to dye NEW white sheets that are 60% cotton AND 40% polyester. Now what? Use BOTH vinegar AND salt since polyester does better with vinegar and salt is for cotton?
Polyester is a though fiber to dye. It needs special dyes and boiling hot water. I would first check if your selected dye works on polyester. Even if it doesn't - no worries, 60% cotton is more than enough for noticeable results just by dying your mixed fabric with cotton dye (package might say "dye for natural fibers/cellulose fibers"). So then I would be targeting the cotton fibers, and would use salt. And vinegar I'd use for protein fibers like all wools and silks.
Just watching the first part of this video, the only downside is you're not using the same color dye as I am, however I did not know about adding one bottle for every 2 lb of clothing, that could explain why they're not fully Black.
@OnlineFabricStore Having just about enough of a spreading UA-camr trend - don't the following personal....... ....but how do you know what the .... that I want? (plz count all the times you use the formulation "You would want to")
I thought that the dumb way the captions were attempting to translate the spoken word to text was comical enough. But when OnlineFabricStore itself writes about it's best to "way" fabric, I realized that there is an extra layer of dumb beyond the usual.
@@judyrosy I am honestly asking, why does it fucking matter? You really had to go out of your way to comment something rude on this nice girl's video for no reason. What a miserable life you must live.
You can’t really dye 100% polyester, synthetic blends can be dyed, but then you’ll need special dyes and high temperatures, which, in turn, can damage the fabric. Polyester is usually dyed in the manufacturing process, bonding the color molecules to the fabric molecules.
This is the first video I’ve ever watched for crafting that isn’t 3 years old 😂 also thank you!
