Socks & Stripes Day 2

Robb dyed a pair of socks today. Swore he'd never wear them but they are cheerful.

(note: the socks came out quite bright but actually show up better if you turn it inside out as shown here)
I tried stripes using masking tape for a resist.  

Thought the dye, which was brushed on, might bleed through----it did.

Mixed some dye with Knox gelatin and brushed that on.  That did not bleed, but I could not wash it out, and it did not soak out either.

 Just hung it on the line to dry, but the colors came out weak.  Shoulda (you will see that word a lot) bagged it to cure.

We also went to K-Mart and bought a whole shopping cart full of $3 cotton t-shirts.  Later I found Big Lots had them for less.......
