Tie-dye pattern - Wig-Wag T-Shirt Tutorial (Liquid Dye) project instructions.
1. T-Shirt has been washed and soaked in soda ash (1 cup soda ash per 1 gallon of warm water) for 20 minutes then spun out in the washer so the material is damp but not dripping wet.
2. Fold t-shirt in half making sure to smooth out and remove as many creases as possible. Now with a washable marker tied to piece of string (I just used sinew) draw on your wig-wag design following the video instructions.
3. Pleat fold your wig-wag lines and the rest of the shirt following the video instructions and secure with rubber bands.
4. Choose your dye colors. For my tie-dye wig-wag t-shirt I chose Power Berry, Concord Grape, Lavender, Wisteria, Hot Hibiscus, Deep Orange, Deep Yellow, and Bright Yellow. Follow mixing instructions for the specific dye you use for your project and dye your t-shirt following the video instructions.
5. Allow your project to sit undisturbed for 24 hours then rinse starting with cold water to remove the soda ash. Increase water temperature to warm/hot while squeezing the material to remove the excess dye.
6. Remove your rubber bands and open your new Tie-dye Wig-Wag T-Shirt!
10. Wash t-shirt by itself with hot water (I use Synthrapol Textile Detergent) without fabric softener and hang dry for the first time. After that wash and dry like normal.
11. All Links to materials I use listed below.
I hope you enjoy and as Tie Dyeing!
***Before working with procion dyes or any kind of fiber reactive dye please make sure to pay special attention to all labels including directions, warnings, and first aid instructions***. I highly recommend gloves, eye protection, and a respirator or dust mask per these instructions.
