Tie -Dye Washing Tips
The dye needs time to bond with the fabric. You will take your DiYs home to rinse & wash.
-
For best color, let sit for 24 hours, 12 hour minimum
-
Start with COLD water, still tied rinse thoroughly
-
Untie under running water. Use warm/hot water to loosen any sinew string. Be very careful if you use scissors!
-
Wash in HOT with a small squirt of the blue Original Dawn Dish Soap (avoid regular laundry detergent for the first wash, they often contain Soda Ash, which will lead to back-staining)
-
Multiple items can be washed together. I let mine soak in HOT water until they are all ready to wash. Hot water will help release excess dye.
-
If you do not want to use Hot water to wash, be aware that the dye will bleed for a while.
-
The dye process will diminish the softness of items. Time and wear or a good fabric softener will fix that.
