        @madmonday:

        @adam313 I'm happy 2 see your images

        favorite tee is the Ihpt-02 Navy bleached and then ice dyed aka the milkyway

        I'm happy to be resurrected again 2! Thanks for looking @madmonday This has been a thrill to see the various results on the different weight IH fabrics. The iht-2011 crease nicely, the ihpt-02 can take a lot of dye and get real saturated, the TW tee and the 1610 are so soft they don't get sharp creases and so it creates a softer dye pattern. I'm with you tho, the bleached tee was a serendipitous success and I think it will look better as the navy starts to lighten a shade or to. Then you might be able to see the magenta lurking beneath the surface.

          I got tired of waiting for more Purple IH tees, so I had to make some of my own. I love the magenta dye on the blue tees!

                      Love them!

                      The Sunday of Greensky Bluegrass' 2019 Red Rocks run was Tie Dye Sunday in honor of Billy Strings. I'm in one at the left and that's my wife with the tie dye tights. Wifey doesn't afford me too many permissions to wear tie dyes so I was happy to have not only a pass, but a conspirator.  I wish I could remember who made my shirt, but I recall his being a Tennessean.

                      Billy and his band all wore them too, but that may have just been business as usual:

                      Think it, be it.

                        Tie Dye indigo sounds intriguing - or maybe tie bleaching a previously indigo garment…. Personally I like tie die when it's a lot less random - maybe something more akin to batik, but I have seen tie die work that was very structured and it was lovely.

                            That is my favourite one. Wonderful colours, very cosmic.

                              Yep agreed, plus green is probably my favorite color.

                                    My coworker and I were inspired to try some ice dyeing after seeing the posts from @adam313.
                                    Will report back in a day.

                                        Imma try it too! I'll be starting with some cheap tees and then moving into some nice one that got stained. Thanks for the inspiration (move me brightly), @adam313

                                            Pretty happy with the results for our first attempt. Next time I’m going to use discharge paste and or bleach to get some of those cool effects that @adam313 has.
