Sinew vs. kite string? Sinew leaves marks? The tighter you pull sinew, they more vibrant the lines will be? (I pulled some too tight, I think.)

[@MrTieDye]

I use sinew when I want to tie something very tightly or if I want to have a white outline around a design, Kite String is what I replaced my rubber bands with, it allows me to tie a design tightly or loosely, but I can adjust it as I tie... here is how I use both of them : kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIOupYF4j6doh9E

[@jeandedo810]

I sure would love to try this folding method. Where did you buy your kite string and what brand? Looks like it needs to be quite strong and not break in order to get a tight fit. Thank you so much for your inspiration!

[@MrTieDye]

I normally use kite string and used to buy it on Amazon, but I got some bad string that would twist up as I pulled it off the ball so I stopped ordering from them.... right now I am using Embroidery thread, it works okay, but I do have to be careful not to pull to hard as it does break

[@jeandedo810]

I did look at amazon and saw some bad reviews on the kite string. I have just dyed some shirts using this method yesterday, we batched them all night and the unveil is today.... we used sinew for the wrapping and it worked great. Thank you for responding to my question. We do have a lot of embroidery thread, I'll try that too. Jean

[@hendriirawan5371]

Bagus keren

[@rosew6184]

Does it matter how you wrap it? Like do you want to keep it evenly spaced or in a certain pattern? Is that going to matter on the outcome? (I hope you understand what I mean)

[@MrTieDye]

I wrap mine tightly, but I am not trying to make anything even, just wrapped ..... if it is wrapped loosely, it will change the shape just a bit, but it will still be a star flower shape

[@jaylee6039]

Can we use fishing line to help hold??

[@MrTieDye]

I have seen many dyers who use fishing line for tie-dye so I say yes ✌🏻

[@tatakpenetv5157]

Bonjour monsieur, Svp peut on reproduire ce modéle sur 6 yards de tissus ? Si oui, est ce qu'on aura plusieurs fois le design ? merci beaucoup

[@MrTieDye]

Je ne sais pas combien de couches de tissu vous pouvez empiler / plier avant de commencer les plis de cette conception... Il a déjà de nombreuses couches en raison du pliage, et en ajoutant plus de couches, vous risquez de ne pas obtenir une saturation complète des couches intérieures de tissu en fonction du poids du tissu....... S'il s'agit d'un tissu léger, alors vous pourriez être très bien...... MAIS, après le pliage et la torsion et vous êtes prêt à teindre...... Je le poserais sur une serviette propre et sèche, puis j'ajouterais les colorants du côté supérieur seulement au début..... vérifier le côté inférieur de temps en temps pour voir si la couleur passe... Vous voudrez continuer à teindre par le haut jusqu'à ce que vous ayez une couleur décente dans chacune des sections du bas, en particulier les sections les plus épaisses...... une fois que vous pouvez voir une bonne couleur sur le côté inférieur dans chaque section, puis vous pouvez le retourner et ajouter une couche de couleur sur le côté Botton, cela devrait le terminer et ensuite vous pouvez le lotir pour que les colorants soient mis en place... Je vous souhaite beaucoup de succès ✌🏻💚🙏

Nice. Any suggestions how to tie this design in a t-shirt or sweatshirt?

[@MrTieDye]

here is a playlist on the starflower design where I show a couple ways to fold it on a tee shirt... it is a little difficult, but it can be done... as for a sweatshirt, it may be too thick for the dye to saturate properly, but you can surely try it the same way I did for the tee shirt ..... kzbin.info/aero/PLMEtBqB2BzuoSK9gu32oQbFGDzVMOvxhy

[@neildelacruz5729]

Thanks for making all these videos, they're really helpful. I've seen this pattern before and I thought I knew how it was done but now I know I wasn't thinking about it right. Where do you buy your kite string and have you ever attempted the perfect spirals that takefumi and timofe do?

[@MrTieDye]

you are welcome... glad to be of help ..... I used to buy my kite string on Amazon, but they had a bad batch so I have switched to Embroidery String for now ...... Ace Hardware sells it, but I do not have a local one ...... and no I have not attempted that spiral yet, but I did order a blank tied spiral tee from Timofey on his Etsy page so I could study it a bit

[@lareebrownell3399]

I was going to ask you where you get your kite string. I also bought some from Amazon and it is awful. I have an Ace hardware a couple miles away. I'll have to check out if they carry it. Thank you!

[@lilyleja522]

Did u do the t shirt inside out? If so, why? Awesome vid btw

[@MrTieDye]

Yes, When I dye shirts, I almost always turn them inside out for a couple reasons ...... first of all, I can see the seams so I can flatten and center it easily. Second... sometimes there are tiny specs of dye that do not dissolve and they can leave tiny spots on the tee (happens with red, purple and browns a lot) so by turning tee inside out, most times the little spots are on the inside. and lastly, I use a pencil to draw some of my designs on and now and then the pencils marks do not always wash all the way out or get covered with dye... so these will be on the inside of the tee as well.

[@lilyleja522]

@@MrTieDye thanks for your response! I followed one of your vids this week and did it inside out like you and I think it's the best one I've ever done. Thank you for your content & lovely personality

@@MrTieDye also, do u soak in the soda ash and then just put it on spin cycle? Meaning no more water just soak and spin?

[@MrTieDye]

@@lilyleja522 that is wonderful, you are welcome, I am glad to be of help

[@MrTieDye]

@@lilyleja522 Yes, when I spin out in the washer, it is just spin.... if your washer sprays water during the first part of the cycle, you just need to set it towards the end of the spin cycle..... if it sprays water, it will dilute your soda ash and then the colors will not be as bright

[@carlschmiedeke151]

Is there a reason you don't worry about putting the all 4 corners together before you fold them

[@MrTieDye]

I am not sure I understand your question ..... in this video I had already folded the four corners together before I started the video just because of the small space i work in .... the lower right corner of the video is the center of the tapestry, where all of the airplane folds are done from

[@carlschmiedeke151]

If low on soda ashe can i soak in solution of vinegar and water after i dye and rinse to set the dye?

[@MrTieDye]

sorry for the late reply .... comments were nt showing up and replys were going missing, but think youtube has it sorted now .... so to your question ... No, the vinegar will not set these kind of dyes... in fact it will lower the pH and interupt the process ... if low on soda ash, you can make some by baking Baking Soda and I show how I do that here ..... kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHWUfoZ4Zdh0j5o

Want to ask again about soaking the t-shirt in soda ashe I must dry it after or just start to to tye and Dyeing while it's wet

[@lydiacharamba]

And as for the gallon of water its equivalent to how many litres and if you don't mind to give your number coz I have a lot to ask coz want to venture into tie and dyieng business here in Africa

[@MrTieDye]

when I do a fold with multiple layers I like to dye it dry ... you can do the folding when slightly damp if that works better, but then let it sit to dry out some ..... BUT with the Star Flower design, I dye it from just one side to start with until I can see a bit of color coming through to the other side... you will see this in the video I make

one gallon is about 3.8 liters ... and messaging works much better for me .... you can send here to my FB .... m.me/CarlMrTieDye

Hi.. You r great person . I watching ur all videos. Can you tell me the name of the dye and how to prepare a dye. (what is the percentage caustic soda and hydro).

[@MrTieDye]

thank you... glad to be of help ..... I use fiber reactive Procion dyes and buy them from dharma, but there are many supplier of this type of dye ...... www.dharmatrading.com/dyes/dharma-fiber-reactive-procion-dyes.html?lnav=dyes.html ...... here is a video on how I mix mine ....... kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXfNY2tviZt1jMk ....... and for the soda ash, I mix mine one cup to one gallon of water.... if you do not have any water issues, this should work for you .... it should have a pH of 10.6-11.0 to cause the proper reaction with the dye and the cotton ..... here is a video on how I mix my soda ash ...... kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJasaWmghcqha7c

[@lisettebatista8774]

What are you using to mark the fabric? Is that a fabric pen?

[@MrTieDye]

I use washable markers, Crayola and Cra-Z-Art are the two brands I find most often .... but a fabric pen would work also as long as it washes out... BUT, I also work on the inside of the tees as I have had a stray mark not wash out in the past

[@winnifredtorrence8418]

Another question....I've tried this pattern twice. Once on a tapestry and once on a t-shirt. The design is not as 'sharp' as I would like it to be. Is it better to do this on dry material? Or am I not getting my folds defined enough when I roll it up?

[@MrTieDye]

I think dry is better when doing a design with multiple layers ..... is there a place i can see your results as that may help me see what is going on

[@winnifredtorrence8418]

[@user-xo9hk1zs7j]

If you wind up the entire cloth will the flower be off-center?

[@MrTieDye]

Nicole M ... Not as long as you find the center of the fabric and do all of your folds so the center is the point

[@amandahuey4254]

Would you mind sharing where you get your tapestry? I'm wanting to try making blankets with my cousins, as they will last longer than just a tshirt.

[@MrTieDye]

most of them I buy here, and they come is several sizes ..... www.sunshinejoy.com/Tapestries-Hippie-Wall-Hangings/blank-white-tapestries-prepared-for-dyeing I also use flat sheets and buy those from Target, and I get plain fabric from dharma

[@Bmae44]

Is there any trick to doing this on a fitted sheet instead of a tapestry?

[@MrTieDye]

the main trick is just wrangling the fitted corners... I start out by tucking all four corners into one of the corner 'pockets' and then finish the airplane folds... it helps to have another person to help hold or stretch things out as you fold and smooth, but relly you just gotta go for it and get it to lay as flat as you can

[@MrTieDye]

[@anjumfatima8342]

I haven't any soda so what can I use for long lasting colour

[@MrTieDye]

soda ash is used with the fiber reactive Procion dyes ... it is what sets the colors so to get the bright colors you will need to find soda ash or the other name it goes by is Sodium carbonate ...... I know some people use pH-Up and some find the Washing Soda.... but it has to be the Sodium carbonate kind.... NOT the Sodium Bicarbonate ...... I know some people find it at pool supply stores ..... I am not sure how much of these other things you need, but the pH level you want for good dye reaction in 10.6-11.0 pH ... you can find test strips, but make sure they cover the range you are looking for

[@kariskreations4587]

How would u do this twisty fold part on a t-shirt or can't you?

[@MrTieDye]

Here is a link to other ways I have played with the Star Flower design, with two of them being on a tee shirt, but also I show how to get a different number of petals or change the design a bit by where you do the airplane folds : kzbin.info/aero/PLMEtBqB2BzuoSK9gu32oQbFGDzVMOvxhy

[@bonniemcintyre9575]

I do not know what part I folded wrong. I tied five of these 2 came out very good and 3 came out split in half at what step did I screw up? Help please.

[@MrTieDye]

ah yes.... you probably folded the airplane folds to the wrong corner, I have had a couple people show me similar images.... make sure the the point where you do the airplane folding to make a point is the center of the tapestry ... hope this make sense

[@anastasiadouglas1688]

Also how do u keep the colors nice n vibrant after in terms of washing

[@MrTieDye]

color vibrancy depends on a several factors .... I use 100% cotton, I mix my soda ash 1 cup to 1 gallon of water, I use Procion fiber reactive dyes, I mix my dyes strong, I batch my items for at least 24 hours, but I like to go 48 hours if I have the time, in the winter time I batch in plastic tubs set next to heater vent and in the summer I put the plastic tubs in the sun to batch as the heat helps, if it is less than 65 degrees F then the dye cannot set up properly, then for washing, I rinse in the sink in cold water first to remove the soda ash and then I slowly turn water to warm and then hot as I remove the ties... then wash 3 times in hot water using syntrapol ..... hope this helps

[@anastasiadouglas1688]

MrTieDye ok think I understand syntrapol is the clear liquid soap?

[@anastasiadouglas1688]

MrTieDye Do u have a tutorial on how u batch set your items the process to prepare the fabrics to be dyed thank you

[@MrTieDye]

I do not have a video on that part.... I do have a video for mixing soda ash .... kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJasaWmghcqha7c .... I pre soak my items in soda ash for 20 minutes, and then I spin out the excess soda ash in the washer (make sure your washer does not spit water during spin cycle as this will dilute your soda ash) and then most designs I will fold them slightly damp and dye them...... afterwards I put them on a rack in a plastic tub with a lid and in the winder I will stack these next to the heater vent in the back room, in the spring and summer I put them on the shed roof in the sun...... I hope this answers your questions

[@anastasiadouglas1688]

MrTieDye if u set it for 20 mins and just squeeze out the excess soda ash mixture and the do the design partially damp will that work also don't have a washer that the spin water stops . Also another question after u dye it how long u leave it to set before rinse it out . Like 2 days or less?

[@jessicas.4898]

This looks amazing(watched 3rd vid)! I'm so gonna try on a fitted sheet and a shirt. For the fitted sheet should I told the rectangle(sheet, 1 layer) in half and proceed to make a paper airplane?

my question is that can it work on every type of material

where's the best spot to buy bulk dye?

[@MrTieDye]

The best kind of dyes, IMO, are Procion Fiber Reactive dyes ... I buy mine from dharma, they are in CA and I live in OR, so shipping is fast and decent price.... but I know other dyers buy from other places closer to them, here are the ones I have bought from ... www.dharmatrading.com/dyes/dharma-fiber-reactive-procion-dyes.html Custom Colors in NC ....... www.customcoloursinc.com/ Grateful Dyes in CO ...... www.grateful-dyes.com/ and here is a link with many other places and other countries to buy dyes and other supplies ..... www.pburch.net/dyeing/dyesources.shtml

[@jeepmikey1975]

What kind of dye do you use?

[@MrTieDye]

I use Procion dye from dharma

[@jcopher2730]

I've been watching videos by many people on tie dying, and I keep hearing soda ash, but no one explains what it is. What is it, and why?

Soda ash is a powder that I mix with hot water and then I soak my tees in it... the soda ash raises the pH level of the cotton fibers in the tee shirt ..... this causes a chemical reaction between the dyes and the cotton fiber, making the dye bond with and become part of the fabric. ..... here are the dyes I use .... www.dharmatrading.com/dyes/dharma-fiber-reactive-procion-dyes.html So when using Fiber Reactive Procion dyes, you need soda ash to make the dyes stick. here is a video on how I mix mine .... kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJasaWmghcqha7c You can buy it from dharma, or at a pool supply place .... main thing is to get soda ash it is also called sodium carbonate ..... and be aware that it is not the same thing as sodium bicarbonate which is baking soda and not strong enough, BUT, you can heat baking soda and turn it into soda ash ...... www.pburch.net/dyeing/FAQ/bakingsoda.shtml

It can also be found on Amazon, I buy about a pound at a time. Be careful, it is caustic, wear gloves and a mask. I also use soda ash on denim to make it look "washed" or older.

here is a link to some information on Dharma's website that covers the basics of what you need to do tie-dye ..... www.dharmatrading.com/home/information-you-can-use-from-dharma-trading-co.html .... I buy the Procion dyes and soda ash from here and I have videos on how I mix mine, but for now this will help you figure out what is needed

[@MrTieDye]

I will do a video on a tee shirt soon for the Star Flower

[@vivianetatga6566]

Merci beaucoup s'il vous plaise faite aussi les vidéos en français

[@MrTieDye]

Vous êtes les bienvenus, je suis heureux de vous aider. En ce qui concerne la traduction des vidéos ou l'ajout de sous-titres, j'ai tellement dans mon assiette que je ne peux pas entrer et le faire pour tous les langages. MAIS, sur les vidéos, vous pouvez cliquer sur le 'CC' pour les options fermées et cliquer sur l'icône d'engrenage pour sélectionner la langue. J'espère que cela aide, un jour j'aurai du personnel qui pourra faire ces autres choses pour moi.

[@thecelticcrone7927]

Darlin, did you say, "soda ash"??? If so, wth Is that?

[@thecelticcrone7927]

MrTieDye .. Cool...thanks

[@MrTieDye]

you are welcome

[@waytograce]

Can someone send me the link to part 2 please??

[@MrTieDye]

yeah I apologize for that.... in the beginning I could only up load short videos so I had to do them in two parts.... I put a link to the next video at the end of this one, ut here it is ...... kzbin.info/www/bejne/g2PJd3iLhpVpntE ....... also, this is one that I went back later and put all of the parts together and up loaded it, here is a link to the all in one video as well ....... kzbin.info/www/bejne/haTZl52LpNh2hNU

[@waytograce]

[@danivarnado2142]

Can you tye dye a Narcotics Anonymous symbol for me.

[@MrTieDye]

are you wanting to order one?? or did you want a video for how to make one??

[@danivarnado2142]

I would like a video please

[@MrTieDye]

I will add it to my list .... the symbol I saw had colored circles, with 4 black lines and then NA letters in the center ..... I think I can fold the whole thing except the letters.... they will be 'painted on with thick dye after it is washed from the first dye session the other way this design can be done is by stitching it... and i do have a couple stitching videos to show the technique

[@danivarnado2142]

I just need the symbol a circle with a square in it. Thank you.

[@MrTieDye]

@@danivarnado2142 okay great... yes I can do that folded and will get to it soon

[@susanabosques8968]

No mostraste el final

[@MrTieDye]

Al principio, youtube solo me permitía subir videos cortos para que se dividieran en dos partes, pero luego los puse juntos, así que aquí está la versión completa de este diseño: kzbin.info/www/bejne/haTZl52LpNh2hNU

[@karenpatry869]

You showed how to fold and tie, but not how to apply the dye!

[@MrTieDye]

in the early days of doing videos I could only up load short videos, so I did them in parts, I tried to put a link to the next part at the end of the video, but I may have forgotten on this one, but later on, I did put the two parts together to make this All in one video .... kzbin.info/www/bejne/haTZl52LpNh2hNU
