Very pretty shirt. If you dye along the pleats on the 2nd circle in looks like flowers

[@FunEndeavors]

Thank you!

[@tsagepainting]

This with very helpful ,y only problem I encountered was the liquid die didn't seem to want to absorb or soak in to easy.. it wanted to bead up and roll off.. I kind of had to brush it in .. do you know what would fix this on my next one?? Thanks alot!

[@FunEndeavors]

That can sometimes be due to the soda ash solution. I've noticed that if it happened on one shirt soaked in that solution, it will probably happen to all of them that you've soaked in the same solution. You can help the dye to soak in by placing some soda ash solution in a spray bottle and lightly spraying the shirt with the solution. This helps break the surface tension and allow the shirt to soak up the dye.

What about washing fastness . This is so beautiful. I will definately try out this technique.

[@FunEndeavors]

Thank you so much - I'm glad you like it! After the shirt has been rinsed and washed properly, there should be very little bleeding of color during the wash. As a precaution, I usually suggest washing the shirt alone for the first couple washings though. The dye that I use (Procion Fiber Reactive Dye) will not fade either. The shirt will look bright and vibrant for many years.

I’m actually glad it’s not inclined ice dyed. I love this pattern ❤️❤️❤️ Curious how an incline will look. The more the pattern, the more I’m intrigued 😁

[@FunEndeavors]

Thank you! I'm really happy with the way this one turned out too. I've made this design that was incline ice dyed before - and I really like the incline effect. Here's a link to the video if you'd like to check it out. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGnIeJl9Zr2rp6c

Can you do this same pattern with a thick sweatshirt?

[@FunEndeavors]

I don't know how well this design would work on a thick sweatshirt. I haven't ever tried it on something thicker than a t-shirt.

[@SIGNTEACH]

I am in complete awe of your talent! I was looking for something different for a long sleeve shirt, and I was lucky enough to find you. Unfortunately, I also discovered that tie dying has changed from what I remember from years ago, and I have some catching up to do. You make the folding look so effortless! I have folded and unfolded the same shirt at LEAST seven or eight times. I think I finally have it now. 😉 So getting to my question: you talk about not using sinew and instead using polyester kite string since it doesn’t leave pronounced white lines. What I have on-hand right now is fishing monofilament and cotton cooking string; will either of these have the same light effect as the kite string? I can’t bear the thought of having to delay gratification any longer just to have some string delivered, but after all this folding and unfolding, I’d rather wait to have the same effect as yours (to the best of MY meager ability). 😏 Thanking you in advance, and looking forward to many more creative ideas to come!

[@FunEndeavors]

I'm so glad you are enjoying tie dyeing again! It truly has become an artform now, and there are so many fun designs to try. You can use one of the string types that you have available. You just need to keep the folds in place without making the white definition lines that sinew does. You could even use rubber bands if you have them available. I hope your shirt turns out beautiful! 🙂

@@FunEndeavors I’m forging ahead now. I’ll keep you posted. Thank you so much for your quick response and words of encouragement. Here goes nothing! 🤞🏼

@@SIGNTEACH Awesome - I'm excited to see how it turns out!

[@SIGNTEACH]

@@FunEndeavors The moment of truth arrived last night, and I have to say that I was more than just a little bit pleased. Even the shirts where a bit more of the dye washed out than planned, and I ended up with a SLIGHTLY more muted pattern turned out terrific! I could absolutely not have done these without your guidance. Many many thanks once again. My next step is to try my hand at the ice dyeing, but now I’ve got to go invest in some powdered dyes. Decisions decisions. Poor me. Heh Thank you for setting the spark to my creative flame!!!

[@FunEndeavors]

@@SIGNTEACH That is awesome - I'm so glad they turned out!!! Once you try ice dyeing you will be hooked! I really love the color splits and just the unique look that ice dyeing gives a shirt.

[@crystalprickett777]

How well would this pattern work with a sweatshirt? I’ve already got one folded and reader to go, but I’m second guessing if the colors will bleed into one another and lose definition bc the shirt is thicker. Any advice? You are my go-to when picking a pattern or color palette, always. I enjoy your work! Thank you for sharing it with us!

[@FunEndeavors]

I think it would probably work. It's got to be a super thick fold though so you're really going to have to make sure you get good color saturation. Thank you for your kind words - I really appreciate you watching.

[@TheLastChapter2023]

Subscribed ! Is there any good Canadian due suppliers ? Can't find a single one .

[@FunEndeavors]

Thank you! 😀 I am not personally familiar with any dye suppliers in Canada, but I've seen that topic discussed before on some of the facebook tie dye groups. Unfortunately, I can't remember the specific group I saw the topic in, but if I were guessing it is probably a group called "The Process of Ice Dyeing". I did go ahead and Google "fiber reactive dye in Canada" and I saw a dye company named G & S which is located in Ontario. Here is a link to their website: www.gsdye.com/mx-reactive-dyes.html

[@LilVixen1999]

Crazy question here! Is it possible to save the water that you rinsed out of the shirt and use that to dye with? That was a very pretty blue color and I think it would have been a great color to use. Just curious. 😊

[@FunEndeavors]

Unfortunately that wouldn't work very well. Once the dye mixes with the soda ash solution in the shirt it begins to react. After the 24 to 48 hours that a shirt has been allowed to process, the dye that runs out of the shirt during the wash out process has lost most of it's effectiveness and so it probably wouldn't bond with another shirt properly.

[@LilVixen1999]

@@FunEndeavors well that's a bummer. LOL was such a pretty color.

[@karenlehnert8333]

I love the pattern and colors on this one! How long do you end up rinsing your shirts before going to the washing machine? I made hoodies last weekend and they look kinda muddy even though I rinsed them forever in the sink.

[@FunEndeavors]

Thank you! It kind of depends on the color. Some colors like the peacock in this one take a bit longer to rinse. What I usually end up doing (especially with hoodies) is I will rinse them really well in cold water to get all the excess soda ash out. Then I warm up the water and rinse them for a bit and untie them. If they are still bleeding quite a bit of color, I have a utility sink that I will run hot water in and add a couple drops of the Blue Dawn dish soap and put the item in the sink to soak. I change the water out about every hour or so and continue the process of soaking the shirt until the water is mainly clear. Then I will wash it in the washing machine using hot water and Dharma's Textile Detergent a couple times.

[@marisaleva7441]

@@FunEndeavors Thank you for this explanation. I find that anything with a blue or purple can take a long time to rinse out. I try to conserve water as much as possible but it's hard to do within the whole tie dye process, but I'm still trying to find ways to decrease water usage. Love how this shirt came out and am going to do one this weekend!! Thank you again.

[@FunEndeavors]

@@marisaleva7441 You are welcome! I agree it takes a lot of water to get them rinsed properly, but I think soaking them helps with water usage. Have fun - I hope your shirt turns out great!
