    Have you tried using more of a paste based fabric.I have used that to die men's Sox
    For a golden gloves competition in the states. I heated up the water and placed it in a large porcelain pot . 3 gallon pot. I died 25 pairs of socks. You have to add salt to the water. They were perfect. It is ok to cook the color for the six. The water can boil.

Now, in viewing your video, I went right out and bought some white linen, all the Rit dye colors and will try your method today, so excited!!! Thank you for the step by step instructions.

    Your linen turned out beautifully! Next month (I’ve overspent my budget this month) I’m going to buy some linen to dye. I’ll use the procion dyes because I have them but it’s been a long time since I’ve dyed fabric so we shall see. I’m nervous. The Rit dye looks so much easier to use though and is very tempting. I like your murky version better than murky. I’m not really a fan of that one. But yours is lovely. Thanks for the continued inspiration!

    I love dyeing fabric but also floss, I usually add 2 Ecru floss in my dye bath, or however I’m dyeing, sometimes just on their own if I’m trying for a specific colour . I found using white not as successful, I guess because they bleach it so much , possibly why white floss seems thinner as well. You’ve produced some beautiful fabric colours here. 👍🏻🙋🏼‍♀️

    @Sharkie2004 23 дні тому

    with dying other more vibrant colors do you rinse them before letting them dry? Or does the salt set it? I would think if washing the piece after stitching that when some wash it, it may stain the piece in the wrong spots?
