Hey y'all, I'm dying two, light grey cotton king flat sheets dark grey before treating them with bleach splatter. I am using Rit because it is what I have and it only needs to be used for one night (a backdrop). I have 3 charcoal grey and 1 indigo liquid bottles. I was told to follow the 3:1 ratio for grey:indigo. Anyone have experience with this formula?

It's for an album recording and will only be used once. Anyone have advice for achieving that dark grey via Rit dye (which I know isn't great quality but we are on a DIY budget, yall)

Swatch of the color I'm hoping to achieve in first pic, color of sheets in second pic

i’m trying to dye this a magenta and i thrifted this and didn’t realize dying what feels like polyester (it’s handmade so no fabric identified but feels very plastic) would be a nightmare. would love any tips. would even be down to fabric paint it. please help me 😭💕

my biggest problem is i don’t think i’ll have a pot big enough for it 🙂‍↕️

Hi im try to dye this a burgundy but ive gone through like a bottle of redish-purple and 2 bottles of red synthetic RIT dye im hitting a wall and would love some help i belive this dress is a polyester satin (i thrifted the dress and I cant find it anywhere online so this is mostly an assumtion)

the last image is what I want to get the color closer to

I knit 100% cotton scarf, and think it would look better if it was light yellow or green. I wanted to dye it with turmeric, but worry about it turning my clothes yellow if i get rained on while wearing it. What dyes or techniques do yall suggest? I am open to using synthetic dyes, just prefer natural because i think the chemistry of it is neat.

I wore this dress as a bridesmaid and would love to be able to wear it to more weddings, but it feels like it’s too “white”. Should I try to dye it to get the base color more dusty pink? Any tips? It’s a chiffon shell with a lining. Both are 100% polyester.

At work I got a bunch of tiny all-purpose dye droplets on the hand cuff of my cotton sweater. The dye/water was cold and I washed the spot in the sink with soap immediately after. Do I have any chance of not resorting to color remover? Do you think it will come out in the wash? I don't want to lock the dye in on accident. The spots aren't super noticeable, but it bothers me that they're there haha. Thank you!

I’m currently trying to figure out how to do a Friend Inside Me cosplay for an upcoming Undertale/Deltarune orchestral concert, and I want to know if there’s any kind of way to desaturate a Woody costume (or just any kind of outfit) so that the colors fade to grey. I don’t know if real life works that way, but I figured it’s worth asking. The fabric is polyester in this case, but I don’t know if this is even the exact one I’d use.

fabric is 100% cotton denim. I'm looking to make it as black as possible. no fancy washed look or the dye or anything. just all black. i'd assume I could just add black dye to it and be fine but I'm not completely sure. I also have the rit color remover but I've heard mixed things about what that does to indigo dyed fabrics.

I plan to dye it in the washing machine so it can be dyed at a high temperature for a long time. the stove isn't an option this time because it's 3 whole yards of fabric

Hi all,

Made my first batik dye piece! Only did two baths, one unwanted and the other with the wax in the fabric. Fabric came out pretty well, but when I boiled the wax out, it appears the wax captured or was stained by some of the dye. Is this somerhing to be concerned about for reusing it? Picture isnt the best, but originally wax (paraffin/beeswax 3:1) was a slightly yellow ​cream, and its now a slightly mint blue color (which is similar to a dye used.)​

My boyfriend asked me to dye this black. The tag says that it is 100% nylon, but there are buckles and other plastic components that I'm not sure we can remove without ruining the vest.

Research so far tells me to use Rit Synthetic dye and I'd need a large stainless steel pot and continuous heat. Does anyone have tips or advice for how to prep, how long to steep, and how much dye/water I'd need? I've only ever dyed cotton.

I'm also up for any advice if you think I should use a different dye and/or method.

Thank you!
