Re: Tie dye

Or alternativly, do what we did at Brownies and just use bleach on a coloured shirt. So the bits you tie stay coloured and the bits you don't tie bleach out. I recall it being shit in later years but I loved it at the time.

You could try dip dying by tying up the bits you want (or using pegs/clips/whatever to create a series of dots or whatever) then submerging the botton 2 inches in the dye, leaving for however long then adding the next and so on so the bits in longest are the darkest. I think we just put then on a wire hanger and dangled it over with a piece of string suspended from something else into the bucket, so you did'nt end up with blue hands. Comprendez?

Oh and ignore that website, it seems a bit mental (sorry Timmy). I'm fairly certain we never used chemicals, just a bucket of dye, a few rubber bands and a pair of gloves.
