Dyeing clothes changing colour.

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT I only dyed the white 1600. The green and black one are OG and just for reference.

I just used luke warm tap water to mix the dye and fill the bucket. Then I machine washed on warm after the dying was complete. I was a little worried about shrink, but I noticed none.

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle good to know. I had toyed with dyeing the cord shirt but worried it would take super hot water and shrink an already snug shirt.

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT the instructions call for a Hot wash post dye job...I wasn't brave enough to risk that. But it seems all came out nicely. Dharma has great instructions...plus the practice on a old shirt method helps remove some anxiety.

Got an unknown stain on the medium pink dye job I did a while ago that just wouldn't come out so I went a little nuclear on it and used the remaining half bottle of dye. The stain is still there (mf'er) but much less noticable.

@pechelman woah red that with black graphic looks sick though

Spilt coffee on my cream 1501, so I embraced it and dyed it “espresso brown”. Pretty pleased with how it turned out.

that's a great color @jerkules and I like the contrast stitching

@jerkules Looks great mate. I need a special "soy sauce brown" for the amount of bloody times I've wrecked my 11oz tees

@AdamJ These may save you some money in the long run

@Tago-Mago gonna pick one up too

Made another indigo vat yesterday using Jacquard indigo.

[Mizmazzle]

@jerkules love this color man! Agree the contrast stitching is an added flare that looks very cool.

I’m curious about the coffee stain. It wouldn’t come out in the laundry?

[Mizmazzle]

@Oaktavia can’t tell if it’s the shadows or not,,,looks to almost have a the dye look. Badass!!

[jerkules]

@Oaktavia you win! That vat dye job looks so good, love the variation of indigo intensity. I’d be really nervous to try with an IH tee in case I f*cked up

[jerkules]

@Mizmazzle yeah it just a bit solider and in quite a prominent spot down the front. Washing got like 90% of the stain out, but seemed to bake the other 10% in. Gave me an excuse for a dye project

[Mizmazzle]

@jerkules came out rad as hell man. Pretty fun how a dye project can give a shirt a whole new life!

I put the shirts in the vat all scrunched up so they have a subtle tie dye look. Gives it a hand dyed appearance.

[Oaktavia]

@jerkules sometimes you just gotta take the plunge!

[Oaktavia]

This one was fun. It started bright red when new. First, I dyed it green using a Dylon dye pod. From there, I tie dyed it using Jacquard indigo dye. I think it was dunked about five times in two separate indigo vats.

@Oaktavia the hoodie looks awesome! If I squint I can see quite a few skulls on it
