I just heard recently got into making tie dye shirts I mean I've been doing this now only for a couple of days I tried today to make a tie dye shirt with a spiral pattern but it did not come out like this and this is the pattern I was going for how did you get that center part so precise it almost looks as if it was drawn on and when I roll my shirt up I've tied with my hand I've tried with a fork I've tried with chopsticks I cannot get it to roll up to where the top of the shirt is flat. I've watched several videos on how to do this some people say your shirt needs to be soaked and wet for you to be able to achieve that spiral look others don't wet their shirt at all until they're ready to rinse it off some do what you did but just wanted a little damp I just don't know

[@FunEndeavors]

Hi! I think it is easier to get a good spiral when the shirt is damp. The fabric is easier to manipulate and it will hold the folds better. I also use a microwave splatter guard now to help keep the height of my folds more uniform. I have a video that I posted yesterday showing me using the splatter guard and a pair of locking tweezers to start my spirals. Also, it is important not to add too much dye to the center area of the spiral. You need to add some, but if you add too much it gets kind of blurry or muddy in the center and your spiral isn't as defined. I'll add a link to the video from yesterday and a link to the locking tweezers. You will probably have to search for a splatter guard with a center hole. The brand I use is Nordic Ware, and I don't think it is available any longer where I purchased it. Spiral video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnK1oqqhn6acaNE Locking Tweezers: amzn.to/3ClHIBN

It’s so much easier to color in the spots with the marker that you’re going to dye. Genius! I struggle sometimes after I’ve drawn lines and can’t remember where I wanted to dye at. They all start to look the same to me lol. Today, I did it the way you did and it was a huge help! So thank you again. You help me out so much with your videos.

[@FunEndeavors]

Thank you! I'm so glad that it helped. I totally understand. I sometimes tie several at a time and so I've started writing little notes and placing them on top of the shirt so that I remember what I tied. It's amazing how many designs look the same after they are tied - ha!

Such a pretty result. How do you get your dye to not POUR out of the bottle? Mine is so watery, but yours is a perfect consistency. Help.

[@FunEndeavors]

Thank you! It is probably just the color that I am using. Blueberry is a Dharma Trading Company color that takes 4 teaspoons of dye per 8 ounces of water. So it will be a little thicker color. If your dye is too thin and it causes issues, you can make some thickened water with sodium alginate and mix your dye using the thickened water. It doesn't take very much sodium alginate at all to thicken the water. Dharma's site suggests using 1/8 to 1/2 teaspoon per 8 ounces of dye to slow bleeding. It can be kind of hard to mix into the water though - I would suggest using an immersion blender to get it mixed without clumps. It will also continue to thicken over time so you could mix it up ahead of time and set it aside to use later. Dharma suggests storing it in the refrigerator. I try not to add too much sodium alginate in the beginning - you can always add more later.

Synthrapol detergent? I have heard Synthrapol is not good for front load washing machines. Thank you

[@FunEndeavors]

I'm not sure if the Synthrapol will damage the front loading washers or not. I actually have a top loading High Capacity washer. I usually use the Dharma's Textile Detergent in my top loader and I haven't ever had any difficulty. I don't use a large quantity of it though. They do make a low foam version of the Synthrapol and that might be safer for the front loaders than the regular Synthrapol.

[@iknowheis]

I have a baseball jersey with red raglan sleeves. I’d like to do a blue and white design on it. This one could work but I was thinking more of stripes. If I used this one, how do I keep the blue off the red, or should I just go ahead and let it dye blue on the red sleeves? Or, maybe you can suggest a different design!

[@FunEndeavors]

Those colors would look really good on a baseball jersey. It would be difficult to do a spiral design though and not get dye on the sleeves. I would fan fold the shirt and dye it in stripes. I would make the fan folds horizontal (folding from the hem to the neck of the shirt). That way when you apply the dye, the stripes will be vertical on the shirt. I would also try bunching each sleeve up and covering it with a plastic bag to avoid getting any splatter from the dye.

[@iknowheis]

@@FunEndeavors Great. Thanks for the advice!

[@manonlombard9507]

Hi ! my question may be a bit silly, but when the t-shirt dries after putting on the color, do you let it dry remaining in a spiral, or do you unfold it? Thank you so much ! ☺️

[@FunEndeavors]

Hi! After I apply the dye I leave it alone for about 24 hours. I actually don't want the fabric to dry out before 24 hours either. Once the shirt dries, the dye will quit bonding with the fabric. I leave it tied the entire time. After 24 hours, I rinse it in cold water for awhile to rinse out the soda ash that is still in the shirt. Then I untie the shirt and warm the water to hot and continue rinsing to rinse out any of the excess dye that didn't bond with the fabric. I've included a link to a video giving a little more detail about how I rinse my shirts to keep the white area from staining. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnK1oqqhn6acaNE

[@baltasarmoa4343]

Hi! The video is great, but I have a question. I did it, and after washing the color dulls a bit, how can I make the color look good?

[@FunEndeavors]

If the color is dulling - it could either be the dye that you are using (I use Procion Fiber Reactive Dyes), or you might not be allowing it to process long enough at a high enough temperature for the dye to properly react with the fabric. I usually leave my shirts for 24 hours at a temperature of over 70 degrees Fahrenheit.

[@Mollss_x]

After dye can you rinse with cold water after 30 mins? Or do you have to wait until the dye has dried (24hrs or so) to rinse with cold water?

[@FunEndeavors]

The dye that I use, Procion Fiber Reactive Dye, needs to sit on the shirt long enough to react properly with the fabric. It must be at a temperature above 70 degrees Fahrenheit for a minimum of 4 hours, but longer is much better (I usually wait for 24 hours). The longer it cures the brighter the colors. I don't let my shirt dry with the dye in it though - once the dye dries, the reaction stops. I put my shirts in plastic tubs that have metal racks in the bottom to keep the shirt from sitting on the bottom of the tub, and then I put the lid on the tub to keep them from drying out.

[@warrenulayan1880]

Hi what should i put to keep the white area stays white...ty

[@FunEndeavors]

You can add a little bit of thickened water to those areas if you would like to. You can thicken water by adding a little sodium alginate to plain water (1/8-1/2 teaspoon to 1 cup of water). The water won't have any dye color, but it will hold the place and keep that area white on the shirt like it was dye. Here is a link to the kind of sodium alginate that I purchase: amzn.to/3rCsUIK. Here is a link to the sodium alginate and instructions for using it from Dharma: www.dharmatrading.com/chemicals/sodium-alginate-thickener.html Both are great products, it's just more convenient for me to order from Amazon rather than from Dharma. You will want to use an immersion blender or some other type of blender to get the sodium alginate mixed well - it will have a tendency to just float on the top of the water without a blender. The thickened water will also continue to thicken as it sits - so I wouldn't mix it very thick to begin with. For this use, you just barely need to thicken it.

[@zweij]

Hey, I need help asap. I made a whie-red-black shirt. What do I do to prevent colours from mixing and white turning grey? I am doing this 2nd time, the 1st time after wafhing the dye out with clear cold water all of the coulours stained white. Please help!!!

[@FunEndeavors]

When you are rinsing the shirt, rinse it in cold water really well first. Then rinse it in hot water to get out the excess dye. If you need to soak the shirt to get out excess dye, add a little bit of Blue Dawn dish soap to the hot water. Then don't leave it sitting in a wad before you wash it. I always use either Dharma's textile detergent or Synthrapol in the washing machine to avoid any of the dye that is in the water from re-depositing back on to the shirt. If you don't have either of those, use a little bit (a very little bit) of Blue Dawn dish detergent. The dish soap will really suds up so just use a couple drops.

[@lakyye225]

[@arianalabarrie]

For the wedges you are dying do you get into the folds too or no?

[@FunEndeavors]

[@arianalabarrie]

@@FunEndeavors great thank you for the quick supply

[@shezi9177]

This is so brilliant, thanks for sharing. Completely unrelated and contrary to the tutorial, but I’ve tried dyeing my shirts but they have way too much white no matter what I do. How do I make sure there are no white areas?

[@FunEndeavors]

Thank you! I usually dye my shirts when they are dry and that helps me get better color saturation. When the fibers are already wet and full of soda ash solution, it isn't as easy to get the dye into the fibers because they are already saturated. The dry fibers wick the dye up and it's a bit easier to tell when they get saturated. When you begin adding dye, but they aren't saturated they kind of have a dull fuzzy look to them (it's tough to describe, but you'll understand when you see it) and when they are saturated they have a darker wet look and dye will squish up when you press on the fabric. I don't ever dye a fold like a mandala, geode or any other thick fold damp. I occasionally dye thinner folds like spirals while they are damp. If I dye a damp shirt, I will add dye until the dye is barely dripping from the bottom of the shirt. I will also check the folds and make sure the color has gone all the way through. It takes a bit longer to let the shirts dry, but since I've been using my Panda Spin dryer - it spins the shirts out so well that it rarely takes very long for my shirts to get dry after I've tied them. Before when I was wringing them out by hand, I would have to leave them for several days for them to get dry.

[@shezi9177]

Thank you!!

[@Ashley-yp4yt]

Why dry? Everything I read says use a wet shirt! My son loves to make these with me thank you for these videos! 🥰

[@FunEndeavors]

I dye mine dry because it is easier for me to get good color saturation. If the fibers of a shirt are too saturated with soda ash water, they won't soak up the dye as well. It isn't as necessary for a fold like a spiral, but I see the most benefit with a thick fold like a mandala. If you've ever seen a mandala tie dye that has large white streaks running through it - sometimes dyeing it too wet can be the cause. I'm glad you and your son have fun tie dyeing. I enjoyed tie dyeing with my sons when they were younger. It's a fun activity to do together.

Usually I put the soda ash first with water then soak the shirt, and put my die in, but sometimes when I iron it it turns brown why does it to do that and what makes tie dye last longer

[@FunEndeavors]

I soak my shirt in a soda ash solution too before I start to fold and tie it. I'm not sure what makes it turn brown - I've never had that happen. The kind of dye that I use (the links to the dye I use are in the description) doesn't fade and so the shirt will usually wear out before the tie dye looks bad.

[@sarahfattal5272]

Fun Endeavors do u add vinegar after ur done tie dying when it’s dry or is that not necessary

[@FunEndeavors]

For the dyes that I use, vinegar isn't necessary. The soda ash solution and the shirt sitting in a room that is above 70 degrees Fahrenheit for about 24 hours after the dye is applied before it is washed out is what bonds the dye to the fabric.

[@sarahfattal5272]

Fun Endeavors thank u so much so u apply the ash with water then die it then let it dry then add the sod ash. After putting the color

[@FunEndeavors]

I mix up a soda ash solution (1 cup of soda ash to 1 gallon of water) and soak my shirt in that solution. Then I wring out the shirt until it is just barely damp. I fold and tie my shirt and then put it aside to dry. After the shirt is dry or mostly dry, I apply the dye to the shirt. Then I put the shirt aside again with the dye on it to sit for 24 hours in a warm place (above 70 degrees Fahrenheit). I rinse my shirt in cold water, then warm the water up to hot. Once most of the excess dye is rinsed from the shirt, I untie my shirt. Then I put it in the washing machine with some Dharma Trading Company Textile Detergent (or Synthrapol) and wash it in hot water.

What store has the best price on the dyes? Michael's or Hobby Lobby?

[@FunEndeavors]

That's a tough question. I don't notice a huge price difference in the dye themselves. However, shipping can be very different depending on where you live. Unfortunately, I don't live close to any of the dye suppliers and so shipping costs are about the same for me no matter who I order from - with the exception of Custom Colours which offers free shipping for orders over $35 (they are in North Carolina). Custom Colours is a small business and if he doesn't have the color you are wanting in stock on his website - he's really good at responding to emails to let you know when it will be available. Great customer service! Dharma Trading Company is in California. I think they offer the largest selection of Procion Fiber Reactive colors. They ship fairly fast. They usually offer a free shipping coupon around Thanksgiving every year - so I usually try to stock up! Prochemical and Dye is in Massachusetts. I just started ordering from them last year and I've been really pleased with all the dye I've tried. They usually ship really quickly. Grateful Dyes is in Colorado. They ship fast too. They all have great customer service and are great companies to buy from. If you don't live close enough to any of them to benefit from lower shipping costs, I would just choose the supplier that had the most colors that I wanted in stock to order from.

Why do you dye a dry shirt? Because some of the tutorial it said it need s to be wet?pls answer

[@FunEndeavors]

You don't have to dye the shirt dry. I do though because it is easier for me to get good saturation. When the shirt is wet, the fibers of the fabric are already saturated with the soda ash water. Therefore, they aren't as eager to soak up the dye as they are when they are dry. So, it makes it easier to get good saturation when the shirt is dry because the fabric will try to wick up the dye. It doesn't make as much difference on a fold like a spiral, but a thicker fold like a mandala is where I really notice the difference between dyeing when the shirt is wet versus when the shirt is dry.
