Thank you for this tutorial!!! I'm finally getting excited to try to get this right. I should have watched this in the first place before my unsuccessful attempt . Lol!!!

[@MrTieDye]

you are welcome ... have fun and I wish you success.... and yeah this is a difficult one and takes some practice to get around those corners... part of it is also having a tall enough pleat that it does not buckle on you

[@denareeves6417]

That's cool I like it

[@willit007]

Increíble as alwaya!!❤

[@nicholemoreau825]

Love your work!

[@lareebrownell3399]

You made those 90 angles look like a piece of cake. I know better though. ;-) Thank you for another great tutorial!

[@MrTieDye]

thank you

[@MrTieDye]

yes I have worked hard to get corners down..... I may do a video just on corners and use something bigger to fold so I can show the detail

[@alan_whoneedstiedye]

I got a request for a cross and came to you for guidance. Thank you.

[@MrTieDye]

You are so welcome ... have fun ad just take your time around the corners :)

[@taresamongthewheat]

Very nice

[@UnseatNubRay]

Can you do sinew instead of thickened water

[@MrTieDye]

yes you can, in fact, I just recently made a new Cross Video where I tie with sinew : kzbin.infozknBQnbCsmM

[@victorianf4478]

❤Hi I love the work you do.. I just subscribed to you I was wondering if you can show how to do a owl if it is possible❤

[@MrTieDye]

thank you and yes I can do that... I will add the owl to my list for when I get back to making videos .... gotta get some orders done so I can pay bills

[@ti2gr475]

Do you ever have problems handling the shirt with the soda ash already applied? I either do it dry or with just damp with water, then soak in soda ash/water after I've tied it.

[@MrTieDye]

no it does not bother me, but I know it does for some people... main thing is that it get soda ash at some point so it can set the dye, but it does not matter what order you do it in

[@lovekrav]

Would it be possible to get the measurements of your cross stencil?

[@MrTieDye]

the vertical post of the cross stencil I use is 13-1/2 inches long and 1-3/8 inches wide the horizontal cross piece is 4 inches long and 2-1/8 inches wide ..... I taped the cross piece so there is 1-3/8 above the cross piece and 8 inches below the cross piece ... I wish I could post photos here ✌🏻 and just in case it helps, here is anohter method of Tie-Dyeing a Cross : kzbin.infozknBQnbCsmM

[@lovekrav]

@@MrTieDye Thank you! I am new to tie dye and love your channel and your talent! I love the challenge of creating. Watching from Creswell, Oregon.

[@lovekrav]

@@MrTieDye you said tape the cross piece so there is 1-3/8 above but it does not look right. Did you mean 3 3/8 in above? If taped with 1 3/8in above then there is greater than 8 inches below the cross piece.

[@heartforchrist7004]

I just tried my first tie dye cross but I also have issue with folding when tie dying since my shirts are wet. You said presoaked the shirt it looks dry in video. Did you dry it after presoaking or is it partially dried? Thank you.

[@MrTieDye]

My tees are barely damp when I fold and dye them... after I soak in soda ash, I 'spin' out the excess soda ash using the spin cycle of my washer ... some washer spit water during the first part of the spin cycle(this will dilute your soda ash), so set it to half way through ... when it is spun out, then the tee will be barely damp ... I like to dye while barely damp as the dye soaks in nicely for me

[@Wheels8504]

Can this be done with large letters? I had an idea to use the letter N, but in a way where it looks wrapped around both sides of the shirt. I'd like to spiral a shirt first and then trace the letter so it looks wrapped around both sides.

[@MrTieDye]

yes I think it can be used in many ways... although I think it will work better for symmetrical letters ... for other letters, I do a Raised Pleat : kzbin.info/aero/PLMEtBqB2BzupSkhAoL-bNx-5t-36H3F4c

[@Wheels8504]

@@MrTieDye Thank you very much

[@patsthemom]

hey Carl!!!! i cannot seem to do this design. it keeps buckling up. my cross looks like a blob with 4 things sticking out. :) you can see its a cross, just n ot a very good one the corners are hard!!!!! is there another method?

[@MrTieDye]

This is the only way I have done the cross, as for the buckling, you might try making the pleats slightly taller .... it took me some practice to perfect this design so just keep at it and you will have success .... as for the corner, I find it best to end a run that I am folding with the end of the line being on the downward side, that way i can fold the next line up with a twist to lay it right in line with the other fold, I hope that made sense

[@selesteautry6816]

What are the measurements of your cross templet

[@MrTieDye]

the upright part is 13-1/2 inches tall and 1-1/4 inches wide and the cross part is 4 inches long from the center to outer edge and 2-1/8 inches wide

[@sarahfoerster434]

Hi Mr. Tie Dye! What is thickened water and how do you make it? Thank you!

[@MrTieDye]

here is a video on how I mix it ... kzbin.info/www/bejne/n57EhYuNmbN9itE

[@sarahfoerster434]

@@MrTieDye Thank you so much!!

[@JustWriter]

What is "thickened water"?

[@sagewave5567]

What dye do you use ?

[@MrTieDye]

I use Fiber Reactive Procion Dyes. I buy most of mine from Dharma Trading Co. www.dharmatrading.com/dyes/dharma-fiber-reactive-procion-dyes.html I have also purchased the same kind of dyes from Custom Colours in NC and Grateful Dye in CO. Here is a video on how to mix the dyes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXfNY2tviZt1jMk

[@apropercat4922]

I had a tie-dye cross at Carlton Palms. The place was shut down for abuse. I hope the guy who made it for me is okay?

[@MrTieDye]

I hope so to

[@kwelchans]

What is thickened water?

[@MrTieDye]

I use it to hold space in the tee as liquid likes to spread to dryer areas..... so if I want to leave white, I put thickened water there ..... here is how I make thickened water that I then use to make thick black dye for the outlining I do on a lot of my designs ...... kzbin.info/www/bejne/n57EhYuNmbN9itE ..... and you may need to adjust things just a bit to get the right consistency, but this will get you very close

[@kwelchans]

MrTieDye thanks!
