Bro, just within the first 28 seconds alone, I am appreciating your words of wisdom! lol mucho gracias

[@TheSUNNinHEReyes]

Dude you are absolutely brilliant. I came across your channel because im getting into tie dye and I cant believe there's someone like you who can figure out how to make all of these beautiful patterns by folding and tying fabric. Mega props to you and thank you!

[@hypkreationz3644]

One of the sickest designs I've ever seen. The colors look so vibrant!

[@CasualCollisions]

Thank you.

[@samanthagibson7688]

Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. Please don't in any way take this as a criticism but it blows my mind that you always make so many mistakes but your tie-dyes always come out so awesome. It actually helps us know how to correct our mistakes it does me anyway. Actually now that I'm thinking about it other dyers who do videos probably make just as many mistakes but they probably just edit them out but I'm glad you don't. Also if I can make a suggestion...I found these markers on Amazon that can be erased with heat so when you do make a mistake that requires you to draw a new line you can just hit the messed up one with an iron and then you wouldn't have so many likes to try to keep up with they are called friction colors

[@nedamm5677]

Agree BRILLIANT! Yin and Yang symbol tied inside the tied circle. Black muck unites the design. Unique and very cool. Thank you for sharing the thought process ... I would be lost without it.

[@naturalwitchery]

I like watching you change your mind. It shows the process and how we all create as we go...with a lot of personal dialogue.😅

[@CasualCollisions]

If you like watching me change my mind on the video, you'd love my normal day-to-day.

[@saraurbano6664]

It's pretty cool to watch a genius at work.

[@joleenphillips2415]

Oh man!!! I want to make this now!!! So sorry you're having issues with your health. I hope it all works out. Stay positive my friend.

[@moogie3111]

OHHHH, I kept wondering why you always turned the shirt inside out when ice dying! Gotcha! Well drat. I was just thinking that you sounded really good and sassy, until you mentioned you still had problems. We're rooting for you and your great family.

[@VictorHernandez-ll6vx]

You are just great doing this, and I’ll pray for your promptly recovery. GOD BLESS YOU.

[@CasualCollisions]

Thank you and best wishes to you, as well!

[@edwardvalentino3835]

This one is trippy. Another awesome dye

[@ScutrBich]

Going to give this one a shot!!! Prayers for good health!! Sorry to hear you're still having some hurdles to get over!!

[@mandamorris7934]

Ohhhhh yeah... As alllways... Outstanding work my friend.

[@katherinenoggle6407]

Very cool! I've got to try this. Thanks!

[@pinchechowder9814]

That looks so nice

[@relaxlove.3678]

Never knew how much precision went into tie dye🤯🤯

[@CasualCollisions]

Some require more precision than others. And, I'd argue that I have "lazy precision" -- I nit pick some things and completely ignore other glaring issues. ;)

[@Tyger_Eyez]

That looks sick! I LOVE it!!! Wow

[@CasualCollisions]

Thanks!

[@lauragracebrown6494]

I just found your channel and it's my new go-to for creative, relaxing videos. Thank you for putting this beauty out in the world! So cool to watch the design process, you are absolutely brilliant at your craft. Hope you are well these days.

[@CasualCollisions]

Thank you, thanks for the awesomely positive comments, and thanks for watching!

[@jordanamoncio9217]

Super cool

[@allypad64]

Beautiful shirt. I think I followed :). I’m going to give it a whirl ❤️. Thank you fur sharing your knowledge ❤️

[@CasualCollisions]

Thank you for watching.

[@pamelaangel217]

Amei todas !

[@cathyursulacomrack5653]

i watched Meo Faustino so i could make sense of this. your outcome is good however. thank you

[@destinimurphy398]

I am so confused lol. But your work is amazing and I enjoyed watching your video! Love and light. Sending healing vibes

[@CasualCollisions]

There was another 30 minutes of an even more confusing explanation that I edited out of the video. I may need to do a second version with a better explanation when things are more settled in my head.

[@thatkoolwoman3729]

What kind of dye did you use for the first part

[@og._tj]

How can I do this for an XL shirl

[@_Freeduh]

Amazing😱😍

[@beatrizdellagaraglazzini2910]

Genius

[@independentbacon5770]

Wish I could have picked this up if sold through Etsy. Super job!!!

[@CasualCollisions]

It didn't last long...

[@stefyorelll816]

Un genio!!!

[@garyjaramillo3196]

Very cool

[@CasualCollisions]

Thank you.

[@wendycarr3167]

I feel this was way more involved than it needed to be lol Love your work though! Nice shirt.

[@CasualCollisions]

Most things in my life are far more involved than they probably need to be. And, it's rubbing off on my children. A "five minute" job will require at least two hours at this point in life.

[@wendycarr3167]

Casual Collisions that’s probably why your work is perfect!! I love it!

[@russelllane6109]

Its called being a perfectionist in my day but now its labeled ugly OCD or even worse now. It takes me all most twice as long to do things as most people as well lol Its ok though lol. Nice work!!!

The background color is black, yes.

Where to get sinew ?

[@CasualCollisions]

I buy it from Amazon in 300 yard spools. But, most hobby/craft stores have smaller lengths available for sale.

[@LisasDistraction]

This may be a stupid question, but is there a particular reason for ice dying certain designs rather than liquid dying them?

[@CasualCollisions]

I prefer ice dying in most cases because of the increased saturation and depth of color. The only time I opt for liquid dye is if I need more precise placement or a field of another color (such as black) to cover the "background". Really, it's just a personal choice.

[@LisasDistraction]

@@CasualCollisionsthank you. Is the increased saturation because of the amount of dye powder used with ice dying?

Hello! I'm from Brazil and I don't find these paints here. Your works are wonderful! Can you give me the name of the paints and where to buy? Thank you! Hello!

[@manuelverdugo1737]

How many grams of powder is used to make just one T-shirt?

[@CasualCollisions]

I don't keep track of dye usage per shirt/design - I only keep track for inventory purposes every quarter. Based on that, my average is about 50 cents of dye per shirt and I buy dye in 1 pound+ bulk containers.

[@manuelverdugo1737]

@@CasualCollisions Thank you. I love this technique. but I thought it was expensive.

[@pamelaangel217]

😍😍

[@stephanieross5183]

This turned out amazing. The prettiest yin yang on KZbin hands down! I really want to try this but you completely lost me with your scientific ways. ☺️ Will you do this again and tell us everything? Did you put something on the back?

[@CasualCollisions]

The same pattern is on the back of the shirt. Do this one again? Maybe.... I'll add it to the request list; but, I'm not making any promises. :)

[@vaperzen2363]

Hello, I'm in need of some HELP PLEASE! I have watched your videos and done some tye dyed shirts but they keep fading badly in the wash, even after the soda ash and everything you've taught me.I haven't watched all of them but could you please tell me how to keep this from happening???!! Please!!!

[@CasualCollisions]

Without knowing every step of your process, it would be difficult to make a guess; but, here are some things to keep in mind: PRE-WASH the shirts to remove any sizing or other additives the manufacturer used on the shirts -- even if it's a "prepared for dye"/PFD version of the shirt. Some people use synthrapol to make sure everything is stripped out. I've never seen the need and a good, hot wash does it for me. Use Procion Dye and mix it with distilled or de-ionized water. Chlorine and chloramine used by your cities water supply will effect the saturation of the dye. Make sure your washing machine isn't rinsing the fabric when you set it to "spin only" to remove the soda ash before tieing. Some washers (our last Whirlpool, for instance) forced a rinse cycle before the spin cycle. I shut the water off to the washing machine when I needed to spin out a shirt. Let the shirt "batch" for at least 18-24 hours after you apply the liquid or AFTER the ice melts. And, it needs to be at least 75F during that process. The hotter (while not letting the material dry out), the better. During the rinse-out in the sink, start with cold water until the soda ash has been washed out. Then, switch to hot water to help make sure the dye is set. Some people use a dye fixative after the rinse-out. I haven't found a need to do that.

[@vaperzen2363]

@@CasualCollisions Maybe my problem is that in using the only dye I can find around me, Rit Dye. I let it set for 24 hours after applying the dye and them rinsed in cold. I didn't rinse in hot water though. Thank you very much for your help! What company do you order your tye dye supplies from?

[@CasualCollisions]

Yeah... Rit dye sucks. I use Procion Fiber Reactive Dyes from Dharma Trading and Custom Colours: www.dharmatrading.com www.customcoloursinc.com/
